GSAx by Situation

Subban's shots faced in 2021–22, split by strength state and by shot danger. GSAx is the total expected goals of those shots minus the goals allowed: a positive number means stopping more than an average goalie would on that workload. The smaller number beside it is one standard deviation of that GSAx, given the shots faced in that split treated as independent coin flips at their own odds. A split whose GSAx sits inside its own ± band is not distinguishable from an average goalie on that workload, which is common for the smaller penalty-kill and high-danger samples even across a full season.

Shots faced counts every unblocked attempt the model scores, shots that missed the net included, so it runs higher than saves-plus-goals. High danger is an attempt worth 0.12 xG or more, the same rule every high-danger count on the site uses; medium and low split the rest by expected-goal value. Empty-net and no-coordinate shots count in the totals but sit outside the strength and danger splits, so the rows need not add up exactly.
