SV% is total saves over total shots faced (weighted), not the average of per-game save percentages — the two differ. TOI and GS are per appearance.

No win-loss record: the NHL credits a decision to whichever goalie was in net when the winning goal was scored, which is a play-by-play fact rather than part of a boxscore line — and 884 team-games here used more than one goalie, so crediting the starter would be wrong often enough to matter. Save percentage is total saves over total shots faced. A shutout is a game this goalie was the only one their team used and conceded nothing, which is the NHL's own rule and needs no minimum-minutes cutoff.
