MattPie Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 After all the hmm'ing and haw'ing about the faceoffs in the Islanders game, check out the stats for the Rangers game: http://www.nhl.com/scores/htmlreports/20082009/FC020044.HTM The two actual Buffalo Centers were pretty good, Mair *really* good. The wingers were awful, almost to be expected. Note which Ranger Center was under 50% though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carpandean Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 Just don't look at our faceoff numbers against the Islanders. That was the only battle that we didn't win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two or less Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 The only player who really struggled in faceoffs last night was Clarke MacArthur but i mean, he played a great overall game and the transition to center can't be that easy, i didn't really expect him to do much better at the faceoff circle.

PASabreFan Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 Rickrolling is dumb. I'm still waiting for the NHL to make the faceoff stats a bit more precise. A lot of draws aren't won cleanly. It would be interesting to give a winger, or defenseman for that matter, a "faceoff assist" if he steps in and secures the puck. "Clean wins" would be another good subcategory. Wouldn't be that hard to keep track, I don't think. Not to mention breaking down faceoffs by critical situations: last two minutes, up by a goal, defensive zone draw, etc. etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
