It would have been a valid strategy with Hutch in net!

But seriously, the Jets PK has been absolutely abysmal. I'm tempted to blame it on the lack of Kane, but even when he was hurt and not playing, they were never this bad.

That sequence was a comedy of errors. Too many men on the ice, leading to a bad line change and mass confusion not wanting another penalty, and it's suddenly a 4 on 1.

I think that's "SAT% Even"?

"SAT%" is probably all situations

edit: actually looking into it a bit more, SAT% might be just 5v5

SHOT ATTEMPTS FOR

Calculation = (5 on 5): Team shots on goal + team missed shots + opponent blocked shots (excluding empty net). Also called Corsi for

CORSI LIVES!

I'm a little disappointed they went with score close metrics instead of score adjusted. A bit outdated.

"Advanced stats" sounds better than "Enhanced stats" I think.

Otherwise, looks good.

Until recently, Capgeek.com was one of the greatest hockey resources out there, providing the fans and media with accurate contract information to lean on so that they knew how much flexibility each team had. It unfortunately closed earlier this month due to its founders health issues, which has led to people wondering if another site would fill that void.

Meanwhile, NHL.com is expanding its offering to the fans by making fancy statistics available. So could it be that the league itself would actually step forward to create its own capgeek?

Well, we have our own site, its just that its internal, NHL commissioner Gary Bettman said with a brief chuckle when the question was asked, per Canucks TVs feed of his recent press conference. You know what, Ive been asked that now a couple times since Ive been on the road this week. I dont know, its something well have to focus on.

My own view is, I think entirely too much attention is paid to the cap and the economics and how much players make and so maybe we dont want to do anything that buys into that approach. Id rather see all the attention paid to the players performances on the ice and whats happening in the game. Im not sure that I think its a good idea, but now that Ive been asked it a number of times in the last few days, Ill go back and at least think about it.

But we live in a capped league now. If anything the cap in general is more important than the fancy stats.

You need to understand Bettman. He knows how important the cap is, and why many fans follow cap space and contracts so closely, but he's always going to represent the teams that struggle to hit the floor and take attention away from that. He doesn't want people to look at the disparity because he believes/hopes it's temporal. He probably also doesn't want fans to think of players as dollar signs, as millionaires.

What gets me more than that, though, are the people who see Bettman's aversion to more teams in Canada as mystifying, as if he has some personal vendetta. How do you not get it by now?

The sad thing is we'll probably acquire a forward before the deadline and he'll be stuck as a healthy scratch the rest of the year. I'll be shocked if he plays much at all in the playoffs.

That said he'll be a beast next year. Same thing happened to Kucherov last year.

I blame the refs. All of them

Edit: also why is Lehtonen so above average this year? Declining or because of bad defense?

I dont know if I'm ready!

The way Cam stormed off last night, you know he's itching to go back in. Not saying Buffalo is a sure win, as they've been proving otherwise, but maybe it makes sense to let Cam have a bounce back against an, arguably, much easier opponent? I dunno. We need him for a while yet so it could be a booster. On the flip side, if Cam were to go down before Hank was back... Oy, I dont even wanna imagine that lol.

I think were gonna see Cam again.

Sickening stuff from a guy who should know better. The only fair punishment is trading him to the Flyers for LSchenn.

As innocuous a comment as it may seem, it must be viewed in the larger context of the sport (or sports, in general) being often an openly hostile place for women to participate. (and I'm not talking simply about women playing sports, but rather even just being fans.)
