This feels like a classic Jack 4 point night game. Really want to see Sam bounce back. He had a really bad game against Carolina.

https://www.hockey-reference.com/about/advanced_stats.html This site did a good job explaining it. Boy, Skinner gets to some dirty areas often, huh?

What is “Expected Goals %” and how is it calculated?

Way too much season left. We'll have stuff to cheer for yet.

Just went back and watched them again. The PP goal was definitely closer than I remembered, but, boy, there was a lot of net for the shooter on that one. But where is the game winner on that chart? It was outside the faceoff dot to Hutton’s left? One more reason I have such an issue with making conclusions based upon data taken by drunk interns in real-time.?

Ugh.

Well, we didn’t win, but at least I was entertained tonight. Baby steps.

At least you admitted there is some shoddy framing going on.?

I agree with that, and that is the problem I have with a lot of stats. In this case, it lumps the unimportant faceoffs with the important ones. They matter when they matter. And different things matter more at different times. Can’t see the trees because of the forest kinda thing.

Outside the face off circle is now considered high danger area? M k. If that’s the case, then Jason Pominville has the most high danger shots in the history of the NHL.

Two shots with no screen, clear view, went in. C’mon.

Sam had a bad game tonight. Right now, Risto is better than Dahlin. We really missed Johansson. Hutton. Do people still believe that winning faceoffs doesn’t matter?

Losing.

Hutton.

YES!!!!

We won’t miss Sam. He’s been terrible all night.

Hutton.

I am legitimately torqued up about the rest of this game.

SWEET!!!!

***** stupid. Convenient omission of the save setting up the second goal. Classic haters vs fans move, there.

Perfect time for a shorty. It's why I won't overly judge any of our D. D is a five man operation and our forwards have been terrible for too long.

Larsson does that too often.

ERod would be really good if he could lift the puck off the ice.

If I agreed with you then we'd both be wrong.?

Gonna be a good third.
