Save percentage is a crucial metric used in various sports to measure the effectiveness of a player’s defensive actions. It represents the proportion of opportunities that were successfully saved or stopped, compared to the total number of opportunities faced.
For example, in ice hockey, a save percentage helps goalies understand how effective they are at stopping shots on net. In baseball, it can be used for catchers and pitchers to assess their ability to prevent home runs or walks.
Opportunities = Total number of opportunities faced
