Posts. Who hit the most this year so far?

[mattihp]

Yeah these stats must be horribly under recorded. I looked up Huselius' stats since his nickname could very well have been "ping" during his time with the Jackets, and he has a total of 6 posts and 1 crossbar from 2009-2012. No way.

He had one season with the Panthers which was just unbelievable too... Post after post after post. I think there was one sequence where he hit the crossbar twice and each post two times in a single shift.

Anyone know where this data can be found?

Someone must be scraping this stuff off NHL.com.

Damn you coronavirus..

How can you screw up this stat? Either the puck hits the post/x-bar or it doesn't, and you know what player attempted the shot.

Pft, outside post don't count!

I guess it's interesting, but to me it's a weird stat to keep. If you hit the post, you missed the net.

By the way, what happens if a shot goes off the goalie's body and then hits the post and misses? Is it both a shot on goal and a post?

I can't imagine that would be the case. That would be crediting two shot attempts. It's just a save...provided it's kept accurately. Which, even at the NHL level, is pretty questionable...

it would count as a shot on goal because it hit the goalie first. i'm sure there's been numerous times when this scenario occurred.
