73541, a shot on net is never a bad play is like 100 years old

in this case it didn't even take that. a team getting outshot and losing is not unusual and i don't care that it happens, i think shot totals are overrated. scoring chances and offensive zone possession time are way more important and even they don't tell the whole story.

for a team to be outshot three to one is egregious but then again it's pretty unusual to see a performance like that end in a loss, too. even during the season i can think of a few 50-save games from guys like Roloson and Howard but they were all losing efforts or run and gun games where the other team had 40 some.
