Investigating how much shot quality talent differs and means for the Jets skaters

[garret9]

I polish off the shot location series in a big finale:

Last week we looked at each of the Winnipeg Jets skaters and their impact on shot location. We also looked at the save percentage in different regions in the defensive zone for each of the Jets' goaltenders.

These articles show that the Jets skaters have experienced different distributions in shot location, both defensively and offensively. Does it matter though? If so, by how much?

I didn't get to really edit the English as I had to leave for a work flight this AM but the data is all good and I've been working on for a few days.
