(I don't know where this data comes from or how accurate it is; are people actually mapping every shot, including type of shot, that every college goalie faces, and it's all publicly available?)

It comes from people at the arena -> Genius software and pipeline -> College Hockey News

Which means, no, it's not extremely accurate, but collectively, ok enough to give a good picture.

Hard to for the non hockey people to understand, but, you can be a good goalie, or skater, and it sometimes doesn't 100% show on a stat sheet. I'm pretty confident in Rousseau, I hope he gels in the locker room, and that the Roest and Katz get a shot, too. I'm sure one will see a game, or at least a period of pre-season. I love having a dominant starter, but a capable platoon is better- for both the internal competition, and the plan B.

I've seen people critique this data for not denoting shot type (slapshot, wrist shot, deflection, etc.). That seems to call into question the quality of the data, if true.
