Can Olober Syko challenge the all-time save % record?

[Victor 11,021]

This is actually slightly silly timing to write this because 1) Ryan Artyomov has a higher save percentage at a ridiculous .954 through 4 games and 2) the season has barely started. But we can safely assume Artyomov's numbers will fall off while Olober Syko will definitely be facing a lot of shots on Warsaw and is one of the best goalies to play for a unquestionably bad team, ever. The result is a .943 save percentage through 6 games (just 1 win) and I predict this sort of pace will be maintained.
 

That is how the all-time record was set in the first place. Anton Nygard was the Vasteras GM's player in S9 and while the rest of the team was sold off, Nygard – one of the league's best goaltenders – remained until being shipped off in S10. In the one season of backstopping a load of nobodies, Nygard set a .949 mark and no one has really come close since. That's despite that being an era of high shot totals itself and us seeing two more spikes in 1) the highly polarised 50s and 2) the first hybrid decade of overpowered goalies. Rhett DeGrath and Greg Clegane exceeded the .940 mark in the 50s, while a number of goalies landed between .935 and .939 more recently before the tweak to reduce those.

 

So can Syko ride the perfect storm to set a modern day record and maybe even challenge Nygard's all-time mark? It's one to watch in S96.
