Wall Has been pretty spectacular all year. With the exception of about a month in Dec/Jan when the whole team slumped, he's gotten a lot less attention than he's deserved.

Regular Season:
GAA: 5th - 1.92
Save %: 3rd - .931
Shutouts: 2nd - 10

Playoffs:
Save % - 3rd - .939

Some people think Wall's success is due to a system which allows very few shots. This is not true. In fact, Wall faces an average of 27.71 shots per 60 minutes played. This is 3rd amongst goalies in the top 10 in GAA.

1. Carey Price, 10th GAA, 29.56 SP60 (shots per 60 minutes)
2. Blake Grenier, 7th GAA, 28.21 SP60
3. Mike Wall, 5th GAA, 27.71 SP60
4. Aaron Sorochan, 9th GAA, 26.45 SP60
5. Jeff Glass, 2nd GAA, 25.77 SP60
6. Kavin Nastiuk, 8th GAA, 25.32 SP60
7. Matt Keetley, 1st GAA, 24.83 SP60
8. Bryan Bridges, 3rd GAA, 24.63 SP60
9. Taylor Dakers, 6th GAA, 24.22 SP60
10. Derek Yeomans, 4th GAA, 23.89 SP60

This has been magnified in the playoffs:
1. Carey Price, 8th GAA, 35.26 SP60
2. Mike Wall, 5th GAA, 33.39 SP60
3. Bryan Bridges, 2nd GAA, 30.53 SP60

5. Kevin Nastiuk, 7th GAA, 25.60 SP60
