  1. interesting that our penalty killers are our plus players.  maybe that says more than you know.?

    i don't know why yet but i'm young with time to learn these important tid bits of nuances. 

    why do you think that is?

      They do. Though it's even more useless than the +/- statistic. You can't judge an individual's performance on stats that measure team success. That's like valuing your stocks based on the stock exchanges performance. Gives you a picture but not the story.

       

      Last year, the most goals against on the PK:

      horvat   28

      Sbisa   26

      Edler   23

      Tanev   21

      Sutter   15

      Burrows   14

      Tryamkin   13

      Granlund   10

      Eriksson   10

      ... etc

       

      PK Goals against is directly related to TOI and teams PK%; meaning individual performance can't be measured using this. Only player who differs is Granlund, and he is significantly better than the rest of the team.

      Oops... I meant to say Sutter, not Granlund... D'oh

      so, the goalies don't get dinged for goals scored against them on the other team's power play either?
