What It Means:

Mason lost three of his final four regular season starts and finished the season with a 23-19-10 record, 2.51 goals against average and .918 save percentage. He has only made eight career playoff starts, going 2-6-0 with a 3.11 goals against average and a .907 save percentage in those outings.

On a four-game night, Mason is our last-ranked goalie in his brutal matchup with the high-octane Capitals. We project him to allow 2.89 goals on 29.86 shots with a 30 percent chance of registering the win.
