I don't get how a 3rd/4th line outproduces Bergeron, Pastrnak and Marchand.
I don't know if you just don't know how to use the tool...or if you know that little about other team's depth charts that you think these are third & fourth lines. Or maybe goals are just too advanced a stat for you?
Let's take a look at the last full NHL season, 2018-19, where we got a good, long look at Marchand/Bergeron/Pastrnak, a full 462.7 minutes in fact. Thirteen different lines scored more goals than they did (
which was 26, or 3.37/60 minutes). Thirty different lines (
w/a minimum 200 TOI) scored more goals per 60 minutes together. When you factor in goals against, the Bruins line outscored their opponents by 0.39 goals/60 minutes of ice-time together, and total of 26-23 over the course of the season. Some top two lines that did better in 200+ minutes:
1. Kreider - Zibanejad - Zuccarello --> +2.96 G/60
