In his work on Shot Quality, Alan Ryder noted that shooting percentage is extremely high on rebounds. That is, in the two seconds following another shot. The overall save percentages for 2008-09:
| Overall |
1-2 s |
3 s |
4 s |
| 919 |
694 |
807 |
892 |
After four seconds, shooting percentages are in the low-to-mid 900s. So it is significant to look at what percentage of a goalie's shots are rebounds allowed less than 2, 3 and 4 seconds after a previous shot. Here are the league "leaders":
