Les statisticiens [...] avaient compilé des statistiques intéressantes : quand un gardien bougeait avant un lancer, sur une feinte ou en réagissant à une passe, l'attaquant marquait 70 % des fois; quand le gardien était immobile (pas de feintes, pas de passe) le gardien faisait l'arrêt 70 fois sur 100.
