Did a piece about Vanek, who had 20 shots in 5 games with no goals before getting a hat trick on 5 shots last night, and that led me to take a look at the distribution of goals. Turns out he usually scores 65-75% of his goals in 20% of his regular season games, and goes scoreless in more than 2/3 of the season. Same patterns holds across players and years. Not quite the 80-20 rule, but somewhat close, and an indication that any scorer is streaky.
