How so?

Also, you realize there's defense stats in analytics too, right?

- MattStrat


Serious question, what are the defensive stats? All I see are offensive.

I'm not real fan of the Hawks and Stars. Lehner is good so I agree they'll get the goaltending. Stars at have spurts and those 2 stud defenseman can tilt play, but too old to sustain is my take on them.

BOB still is struggling, but they have talent and are well-coached so I see them sticking around.

Montreal I think is a bubble team. They lack star power, but they're really deep up front and can exploit some teams that way.

Just read Dubnyk has already given up 13 goals above expected, and he's only started 13 games. They're 4th in the league in xGA so they can win some games as a defensive team, but when your goalie is that leaky it kills everything.

- Tojo.

Klingberg has been out for quite sometime for the Stars if that’s one of the studs you were referring to. He hasn’t done much offensively this season either as far as actual production

I like Julien and think he’ll keep them competitive but who knows how long it’ll last

Two of my clients are friends with Montembeault so I’m fine if he steals some of Bobs thunder for a bit but ultimately I think Bob will settle in - merely speculation of course

Cheers to hoping the pens can end the Aisles point streak prior to breaking their record 🍻

Anyone else excited to see if Galchenyuk and JJ can build upon their 2 game point streaks?

BOFA is the most prominent defensive stat.

Defense is awesome but Ben went down game two for the year and that's the end of the season.

Shots against, shot attempts against ,goals against, expected goals against , PK%. ...I consider them all a gauge of defensive play and I'm sure I'm not thinking of others right now

EDIT: I forget scoring chances against

Missing the first period. Looks good so far. A shorty is always a good sign.

ineffective math just posted opponents have a -31% threat when he's on the ice.

- Tojo.


Does that mean the penguins are have a 31% less chance to score? Or while on the ice the opponent has a 31% less chance to score?

He's playing great. No wonder he was a fan favorite in the Peg.
