    Default Random Thoughts While Perusing NHL Stats

    While checking out some stats tonight, I ran across some interesting ones.

    Cy Young candidates:

    National League - Marek Svatos Col 20-3 (goals, assists)
    American League - Chuck Kobasew Bos 17-8

    Shooting Percentage (Qualified Leaders on Yahoo):

    Mike Ribeiro .314
    Marek Svatos .225
    Brad Boyes .222

    Jason Blake has the fourth most shots on goal with 207. Here\'s the goal totals of the top shots on goal players:

    36, 28, 32, 9, 23, 37, 25, 29, 21

    Can anyone spot Blake\'s goal totals? If you guessed 9, you\'re right.

    You want clutch? Six of Jeremy Roenick\'s nine goals have been game winners!

    Conversely, only one of Olli Jokinen\'s 23 goals have been game winners. I guess it pays to be on a winning club?!

    Why does Yahoo still have a column for Game Tying Goals?

    Nicklas Lidstrom is gold in leagues that count plus/minus. His +37 leads the league. The injured Dany Heatley is next with +31 followed by Pavel Datsyuk at +28.

    Bad Brad Richards owns the leagues worst minus at -23, followed by Patrick Marleau\'s -20 and the injured Nylander\'s -19.

    One of these two guys is going to win the trophy no hockey player wants to win; the Lady Byng. Pavel Datsyuk has recorded only 6 penalty minutes. Probably more impressive is the fact that Brian Campbell has only 6 minutes as a defenseman.

    I\'ll leave you with a word of advice. I know I don\'t cover the Western Conference, but I own this guy in one of my pools. Since the new year, Chris Mason has a 3-1-1 record, with 2 shutouts. His GAA is a gaudy 0.99 and he has a save percentage of 0.957. The fact that Nashville hasn\'t allowed more than 29 shots in those 5 January games is what\'s making the difference. I\'d try to get him now, those are the types of numbers we were hoping to see this season.

    Uh, I suppose it crosses into his territory. I never gave it much thought to be honest!

    All I was really looking for was something quick and interesting to post in the blog. I haven\'t really used it all that much, so it\'s time to start putting some entries down here.

    Thanks to all you guys for your support.

    Very SLOW day at the office....

    CY Young:
    NL: Franzen 27-11 (Svatos finished 26-11)
    AL: Semin 26-16 (Kobasew finished 22-17)

    Shooting %:
    Ribeiro .252
    Boyes .208
    Svatos .186

    Blake slipped to 5th in the SOG department with 332. Goal totals of the top 10:
    65,43,34,50,15,38,40,38,31
    Wow 6 goals in 125 SOG since comish\'s post... that a SH% under .05 ... pathetic.

    JR continued to be clutch potting home 14 G this year, 10 of which were GWG!! Next closest in GWG with less than 20 G\'s was W.Wolski 6 GWG on 18 G\'s this year.

    Other end... Pominville and Tkachuk 27 G\'s this year only 1 GWG each... ouch. Jokinen rose up to the challenge to finish with 5 GWG on 32 G\'s this year. Honorable mention I.Kovalchuk 52 G\'s... only 4 GWG.

    Only 6 players made it to +30 this year (down from 11 last year):
    Datsyuk +41
    Lidstrom +40
    Heatley +33
    Getzlaf +32
    Zetterberg +30
    Keith +30
    As if D.Keith tied Zetts in this category...wtf?

    Worst 3 in +/-:
    Bonk -31
    Boyle -29 (in only 37 games OUCH)
    B.Richards -27 (only -4 since the last time this was written)
    Next was 83 pt. scorer M.St.Louis... poor TB.
    Marleau levelled off going +1 the rest of the way finishing -19

    More on the playoffs next time :P

    kudos marty, interesting update! I guess my advice to pick up Chris Mason wasn\'t too bright in the end! Datsyuk for Byng, Dobber for GM.
