Great game by the boys but when is Keefe gonna give up on this GIo Holl pairing. They have been awful, Holl especially. Throw Liljegren in there for a game and see what the kid can do. He is a -3 with zero points and from what I heard been on the ice for 6 of 9 TB goals.
If Keefe didn't replace him after a 7-3 loss, I doubt he does after a 7-2 win.

Single game advance stats in general are pretty meaningless.

Most xG models are made to incorporate some bias so the model isn’t overfitted to the prior/training data. The bias is balanced out later with a larger sample/testinng data that reduces error.

That being said, I do actually think the top line was the worst at 5v5 last night. Marner’s second goal went it, but would’ve barely registered in terms of xG because it was basically a nothing shot.

Considering I never tried to respond to this post, it is now official: hfboards and my cell phone don't like each other.
