Forsberg has 18 goals already
Johanson has 40 pts
They also have 2 goaltenders who can make saves so you know

But scoring goals, teams that have the highest goal scorers always win, defense doesn't matter. A goal is a goal.

Wowy is a really bad stat and an awful way to look at and compare players. It's not really that difficult to analyze JVR as a player.

Depends on the data and sample size.

edit: By the way, thanks for your great insight as always.

Oh I heard about that. Didn't realize it was Shawn tho. Woof.
- hereticpride

Yep, originally they were saying it was Farzetta but nope it was Shawny

With the history of the Flyers and Native Americans it can't be good for him.

No, it's a bad stat and if you're using that as a primary tool then methods need to be reassessed.

You didn't read my post per usual. You saw something stat related and then went into a frenzy. Thanks.

I read your post, wasn't much to it. Hockey is really not that complicated of a game. Don't need a bunch of stats and detailed analysis or in depth study to see what kind of a player any player is.

Nolan up here!!!

I guess you have reading comprehension issues then....

I'd probably start to look at https://hockeyviz.com/wowyMaps/ for at least a high level overview of how players fair with JvR and without him in general, start to look at more individual numbers, and tape

Nashville is 8th in the league in goals scored

I read exactly what you said. Wasn't hard to comprehend. I pointed out the flaws in it.

Really Budreau's fault. He should have known backup goalies are the Flyer's weakness

Is weise playing?

no he's faking injury so he's not traded

Great zone presence......and then they give it to Simmonds

Knights need a horse for their jousting promotion?

Yeah I wonder how many players they have on their roster that float around the ice...but Rinne and Saros is the difference.

Judge how the player plays, not their stat line. Give me a team that works hard, plays defense and has balance scoring because all their players provide something positive for the team to win.

Did Nashville even have a 30 goal scorer last year? I think they were pretty good.

Maybe he was traded and the team demanded that he sit out not to damage their goods.

Obvious goaltender interference.

That looks like Hagg pushed.

That's no goal...

Staal was going without Hagg.

the NHL doesn't want us to win the lottery for hughes

This is an absurd game

That looks like Hagg pushed.
- hereticpride

Looks like he was pushed, but who knows

Gonna be a goal either way based on the wild challenge.

The key is watching Hagg's arms, never fully extended...unless Hagg is stronger than Chara.
