Sounds to me like a demotion that isn't called a demotion
And then ratio it out to make it goals/2 min@Appleyard @JojoTheWhale or any of you stat guys looking to fix an irritating anomaly with the NHL, create a power play index of goals per minute.
The current way of calculating Power Play efficiency is so flawed that it makes the stat almost useless. A 5 second power play is counted the same as a 5 minute power play.
I think there's a legit opportunity to create a more useful index that could be marketed and shared widely that could possibly gain enough traction that it would be adopted by the NHL.
Wait did he actually get shots in his knee? I miss a lot of things during my work weeksI don't know why they keep coddling this bum, call it like it is a demotion.
But in all seriousness, it's good to see that he's making his way back and whatever they did last weekend helped make him feel better. Let's see how long that lasts though as injections are weird.
Yeah but I'm talking about creating a stat 'goals per minute' that would be used instead of 'goals per opportunities' on broadcasts/discussions. Most fans, especially casual fans, want an easy metric with which to follow their teams success.I think most people in the know look at the chances that are being created by the PP as a way to gauge how good it is

I did not know that as I stay away from advanced stats for my own sanity.PP Goals For Per 60. It’s available on any and all stats sites: NaturalStatTrick, EvolvingHockey, etc.
I thought I read that that it was alluded to by Ghost, It could be completely wrong though.
Yup, and sending him down is no big deal. They already tried the normal way of just bringing him back without a conditioning stint and it ended poorly, so this time they want to play it safe and make sure he’s able to play before putting him in the lineup (which they better do as soon as he’s definitely ready).I don't know why they keep coddling this bum, call it like it is a demotion.

I love the sarcastic posts mixed in with the genuine dumb ones.
Oh I definitely know. 100% for sure.Which ones are which...
Natural stat trick is free af dude@TB87 Looks like you need to sign in to get the information but I was wondering how much different the rankings are as compared to the current ones.
I went there and I saw sign in and I was out. I'll check it again.Natural stat trick is free af dude
Good idea to try and get Ghost some games while not disrupting the lineup that is working.
Show he is ready to play before deadline day.

We just hit a combo of dumb posts.
Sometimes this board makes me wish I never learned to read.
I guess? What makes the whole thing odd is he was basically a cheerleader for Frost when he was playing with the Soo. Once he turned pro, it’s been the complete opposite. Just odd to me
I also dont think his defensive play is particularly great. Tries to leak out of the zone and relies on his skating and long reach too much. He allows himself to get on the wrong side of the puck knowing that he can recover most of the time but then will get burnt by it quite often as well.
If you focus on him in the D zone you'll catch his marks making open cuts to the net quite often considering he supposed to be a plus defensive player.
Still I think overall he has been a good add, at his age I'm not too worried about his contract going forward.
I like using Net PP% because it takes into account giving up up SHG.

Damn. Ottawa have 14 SHG. So they are 21st in PK%, but in 8th Net PK%.

Holy moly, Colby Cohen is a condescending tool:
