The more shots Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Frederik Andersen receives, the better he plays - and it isn't even close.

Andersen stopped all 40 shots he faced Tuesday night in a 1-0 win over again the Florida Panthers, further improving his numbers this season when facing 40-plus pucks directed at him:

40+ shots Stat < 40 shots
7-0-2 Rec. 23-16-2
1.89 GA/G 2.87
.959 SV% .912
2 SO 3

Is it crazy to think that the Leafs might be better off if they allow their opponents to take more shots from the outside?
