GAA — Goals Against Average
Goalie stat
Quick Definition
Goals allowed per 60 minutes played.
Full Explanation
The average number of goals a goalie gives up per 60 minutes of play. Lower is better. A GAA under 2.50 is generally very good. Keep in mind this is affected by team defense — even a great goalie will have a higher GAA behind a bad defense.
