Eleven Posted October 19, 2017 Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 average power play time of your opponent forwards. Therefore, if you are on the ice with Crosby (who might get 6 minutes/game), Malkin (who might get 4 minutes/game), Rust (who might get 1 min/game), your opponent forward power play time would be 11 for that moment. Dudacek and MattPie have it right I think Got it. Thank you. That's got to be a huge PITA to calculate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildCard Posted October 19, 2017 Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 It think it means he spent 9.61 even strength minutes playing against guys who play on the opponent's PP. He's using PP use as a way to measure the most offensively gifted forwards. Or at least that's how I'm reading it. average power play time of your opponent forwards. Therefore, if you are on the ice with Crosby (who might get 6 minutes/game), Malkin (who might get 4 minutes/game), Rust (who might get 1 min/game), your opponent forward power play time would be 11 for that moment. Dudacek and MattPie have it right I think Interesting, but there's definitely some flaws in there. Matt Moulson has appeared on our PP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mustache of God Posted October 19, 2017 Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 ###### we need Zemgus healthy. I have a feeling Zemgus is going to be out for some time with a broken bone. Did you see the shot he blocked? He took a slap shot to an area with virtually no padding and those pucks are moving 80+ mph. He coudln't stand after he took the shot.

nfreeman Posted October 19, 2017 Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 I'd like to see Ducks game Bailey, who I thought was pretty effective, and not Vegas game Bailey, who I thought was mostly invisible. But if Ducks game Bailey is back, I'm definitely interested to see him on a line with ROR and KO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorny Posted October 19, 2017 Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 Reinhart isn't going to be able to create anything centering Pouliot and Griffith on a third line, those guys have shown themselves to barely be NHLers. Might be time to start an over/under on how many games Reinhart goes before notching an assist this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwksndmonster Posted October 19, 2017 Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 Pouliot has shown some signs of life lately. Griffith is still a big yuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mustache of God Posted October 19, 2017 Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 I find it interesting that Okposo and ROR have been paired together non-stop since Okposo has been signed her. If things continue to not work out I'd like to see a major shakeup in the lines (Okposo - Eichel - Reinhart)????. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LTS Posted October 20, 2017 Report Share Posted October 20, 2017 We really need to stop putting wingers on the wrong side. ? - Reinhart - Okposo Zemgus - Eichel - Pommers Kane - ROR - Bailey The correct side for a winger is not dictated by this handedness. It's dictated by his style of play and his comfort level. I hated playing RW as a right handed person. This was also driven by the fact that my right eye is stronger than my left so playing on my right side I was not able to see the ice as well as playing off-wing. In addition, I preferred to have my stick on the inside of the ice surface, it gave me better shot angles. Not everyone is that way of course, but there are players who prefer playing the off-wing.

Okposo to my knowledge has never played his off wing 5v5 in the NHL. Reinhart has not either except for a couple shifts this season. Why force them to do it when you don't have to?

Wyldnwoody44 Posted October 20, 2017 Report Share Posted October 20, 2017 I played RW as a left shot.... This was sooooo long ago, but i always remember a lot of the guys I played with like to play "off wing" as the angles for shooting were much much better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Buffalo Posted October 20, 2017 Report Share Posted October 20, 2017 (edited) I played RW as a left shot.... This was sooooo long ago, but i always remember a lot of the guys I played with like to play "off wing" as the angles for shooting were much much betterAgreed play right wing when not playing center and love cutting to the middle from right side. Also it sets upmy shot better, puck is in a better shooting position feel wise so I can get off a shot quicker with more force. PS play a lot of center lately so passing for me is more effective from the left side rather than from a backhand unless I cut like Im going to shoot.

Wyldnwoody44 Posted October 20, 2017 Report Share Posted October 20, 2017 Was there a shift in the game? Because the last year or so when reading here, I was very confused when we were talking about sides, I never played center, so I can't speak to that.

Because the last year or so when reading here, I was very confused when we were talking about sides, I never played center, so I can't speak to that.Not sure but I do think its a comfortability and skill level issue. PS Crosby seems to effectively play on his off wing, not sure how many guys do it.Jack’s shot against Nashville last year was a cut into the middle from his off wing... one of the best illustrations I can think of off the top of my head.
