People that think +/- is a defensive stat trigger me.

When’s the latest date a callup can be recalled to the NHL roster?

There isn't a hard date. The team just has to be cap compliant. Of course I'm sure the team has an internal date.

+/- is the dunce cap of hockey stats

They’re limited to 4 recalls for anyone who isn’t on the roster at the trade deadline tho

Ghost is on a rehab assignment, how he play is meaningless, how he skates is what matters.

There is simply no reason to bring up Frost right now, he's not going to add anything as long as Laughton and Bunnaman continue to play well. So let him get lots of practice and ice time in LHV, and when they need him, he'll be ready. And if it makes him hungrier, all the better.

 

[Tripod]

Ghost's knee looked fine in that clip and that's the main thing.

Doesn't look slow at all either, although that will surely be the narrative to defend the staff once he's screwed over again.

 

[BringBackHakstol]

Ok yeah, so Meltzer is a joke

I guess he’s never watched 3-on-3 before so he doesn’t realize that the players rotate around the zone all the time. And apparently not chasing the puck like a 6 year old playing soccer is “puck watching”.



Also, shoutout to Tom for mocking Shill.

Meltzer has long proven himself to be an idiot or a shill. Hardly surprising he doesn't understand 3v3 is a completely free flowing setup with that comment

 

[deadhead]

Looking good skating for a few minutes in the AHL does not mean NHL ready.

As we saw with Pitlick to begin the season, it takes a few weeks of hard work to get up to NHL speed and stamina after you've been out for a month or more.

There's no reason to rush Ghost with the team playing well, make sure he's 100%, for one thing, someone like Ghost is more vulnerable to injury if he's lagging in the 3rd period and taking hits he'd normally avoid. Nor will it hurt for him to have fresh legs for the stretch run.

 

[DancingPanther]

Meltzer is worthless nowadays.

Oh I didn't say he should play over Hagg.

"if it ain't broke...."

[deadhead]

My man, think I had him higher on the goalie list than just about anyone else.
He started turning the corner last season.
Not surprising a 6'8 goalie took a little longer to get it together.

After watching Sandstrom flatline the last few years, Tomek struggle for years before turning it around, Ersson struggling in his SHL debut, the more the merrier. Goalie prospects are always a crap shoot.

Agreed. Just look at their +/-'s..

 

[FLYguy3911]

Yep but “emergency” recalls can get you around that.

Doesn’t look like we’ll have to waste any recalls trying to get guys eligible for the AHL playoffs though.

 

[Striiker]

Speaking of +/-...

What a valuable stat.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

Plus-minus stats remind me of both pregnancy tests and the gender fluidity in Thailand.

Speaking of which...

The nice thing with the goalie depth we've developed is they can be patient.
Fedotov can spend a couple more years in the KHL, Ersson at least one more SHL season, Ross doesn't graduate for another year.
Tomek might need to be signed, other than that, no real rush.

+- is not a particularly useful stat, however, have Ghost and Hagg not both been played in the bottom pairing, playing against the same opposition, with the same partners?

PuckIQ has a quality of competition metric that measures players performance at 5v5 vs Elite FWD competition, Middle FWD competition, & Gritensity FWD competition (i.e. vs muckers & grinders):


5v5 TOI vs Grit FWDS:
Hagg: 253.05
Ghost: 244.57


5v5 Shot Attempt Suppression/60 vs Grit FWDS:
Hagg: 50.00
Ghost: 43.90


5v5 Quality-Weighted Shot Suppression/60 vs Grit FWDS:
Hagg: 36.10
Ghost: 38.60


5v5 Goals Against/60 vs Grit FWDS:
Hagg: 1.19
Ghost: 1.96








5v5 TOI vs Middle FWDS:
Hagg: 216.65
Ghost: 237.75


5v5 Shot Attempt Suppression/60 vs Middle FWDS:
Hagg: 60.90
Ghost: 49.50


5v5 Quality-Weighted Shot Suppression/60 vs Middle FWDS:
Hagg: 47.40
Ghost: 39.20


5v5 Goals Against/60 vs Middle FWDS:
Hagg: 2.49
Ghost: 2.78








The goal-based results are ever in Hagg’s favor. On-Ice Sv% and all that jazz

Gritensity eh? Sounds like the unobtanium of advanced stats.

 

[Stizzle]

York is on BTN @ 4. Brodzinski is on at 6:30.

It’s just the word they chose to categorize 4th/lower-end 3rd line FWDS.

Michigan is absolutely amazing at scheduling games right in my open time slots. 6pm games Friday, 4 pm games Saturday after Flyers.......yet, I really don’t want to watch. They’re messing with me.

I didn't watch yesterday and I'm not watching now. Michigan is poo.

I did watch the Duluth vs WMU game, which was actually fun.
