Dude, why the hostility? Lighten up. I am pretty sure the Leafs winning or losing has no material effect on your life. At least I hope not.

As for S my own D. I would if I could, and I would never leave the house. I would also have a much more interesting career.

That's what he does best. If he disagrees with someone, he must attack them personally.

First of all, I asked "out of curiousity", so there is hardly anything to "read it and weep" about.

Second....

Quite the opposite. I have proven stats that show that over half of Kessel's shots are from 31+ feet out.

What do you have?

Nothing.

The shot chart there shows your post to be wrong. Read THAT and weep.

Oh so the CBC statistician is wrong? Wow, great to know.

Oh wait a minute. He wasn't.

17 of his 36 shots came from 31+ feet.

9 of those shots have come from 40+ feet.

5 of those shots have come from 49+ feet.

Oddly enough, only 3 of those 36 shots have been within 10 feet of the net.

Looks like a great way to score goals.

Simple math.

17 is less than half of 36.

Oh so 47% is acceptable.

Yeah, you lost this one.

Umm, nice try. The stats you've been spouting for the entire thread aren't even true.

Not surprised though.

50% of his shots are from 28+ feet.

Does that make it all feel better for you?

No, better for you, that you're no longer posting crap though.

Still nothing like Blake, which was the claim earlier, anyway.

One shot short of 50%. Sorry but you're the one posting crap here. You have absolutely no counter argument whatsoever. All you are doing is splitting hairs and avoiding the point.

Yes, he is playing like Blake. Perimeter, low percentage shots. Just proved it to you and you still ignore it.

He has more shots from 50+ feet than he does from 10 feet.

How much more basic does it need to be?

You haven't shown that he's playing like Blake at all.

Hahaha. Prove it. I suspect it would be even higher, and probably more from even 50 feet out.

More shots from 50+ feet than 10 or less feet.

Proven.

22 out of 36 shots from 25+ feet when inside 25 feet is clearly the hot spot for shooting.



Proven.

First!




Any Habs rumours?




'Nuff said.

Yes.
