LGR4GM Posted 4 hours ago Report Posted 4 hours ago Posters use expected goals or xgf and many ask how it works. It takes historical sh% based on onblocked shots on net and averages that out. Then it adds up a teams total for the game. This actual had a visual for shot zones and some models get more precise than this because of NHL tracking which is very accurate now. They can also get really fancy and adjust for shot type, screens, pre shot puck movement. I thought the general visual would help though. Quote
