Reading the board

Totals

Ranked by season total (or by rate, for SV% and GAA).

Per Game

Wins, saves and shutouts ranked by per-game rate.

/ gm

Per game: the counting stat divided by games played.

↑ / ↓

How many places a goalie moves when a counting stat is ranked by per-game rate instead of the total. ↑ rises, ↓ falls.

Pace

The per-game leader, when it is a different goalie than the totals leader.

Climber

The goalie who gains the most places from the totals order to the per-game order.

clear

How far ahead the leader finished, over second place.

min GP

The games cutoff to qualify for the rate boards (SV%, GAA) and the per-game boards, so a tiny sample cannot top them.
