That's the thing I keep asking: who decides what's low danger, high danger or an expected goal? Just because something is based on "years of data" doesn't answer the question.

Not sure if this has been fine tuned since then (I should probably find out), but here's what it says on the Moneypuck website.

I have to ask, do you consider breakaways soft goals? 1-on-0? 2-on-1?

No.

A soft goal example would be the many, and I mean MANY times UPL was in net the past year or so, and in the game day threads I pointed out, too many times, that UPL was set, in position, facing the shooter, didn't have to move laterally, and a shooter took a non-screened shot from 15 (or so) feet out that got by him. 

I hardly made those posts 2 years ago, but all of last year and already a few times this year he's let those in.

Who decides these goals that shouldn't have gone in? I'd really like to know how that judgement is made.

We know one thing.  You’re not on that panel.
