I would say there will be a regression to the mean, at least a slight one, 3+ standard deviations is a lot. We have to also consider that his starts include 3 years of playing back up in van where he faced bottom league opponents and now he plays with a defensive minded team (best pk team 2 out of 3 years) . I'm still planning on drafting him though...
The Devils play very defensively, and they have very aggressive tendencies while shorthanded. These two factors will help any goalie's PKSV%. What was Marty's, by the way?
I am gonna go with no, he just isn't that good, and has been extremely lucky.
