Just got back from a biostats review...missed the first 10 minutes.

How'd they look?

Welcome to another class in Stats, fun times...

They've dominated, no score yet. Gus scratched because he slept with Berube's daughter.

Well in 4 pages, i've already seen the word Corsi to last me a lifetime and i already had enough of it.

Every time I see Corsi, I think

Schenn getting 15/16 minutes a night early in the season is getting sheltered. When you're playing nearly 20 minutes a night i don't know how you can say someone is getting sheltered even if he isn't facing the other team's top line, but that's just my opinion.

They get who he's on the ice against via the NHL.com shift reports.

I agree for the most part. The problem is that any stat that is Corsi based is suspect. QofC isn't all it's cracked up to be. It's misleading.

Oh? I thought it was because of his subpar Z-Corsi which deviates from the mean more than 2.36 times, or roughly 1.62 times the IQR.

He's an outlier.

Well said. And on another note. I don't like Gustafsson being scratched.
- MJL

Totally speculative, but I think he may be sitting because of pain. He took a shot off the foot or something last game, right?

BSchenn is in a drought, but he's had some glorious chances for goals lately. At least he's involved i guess.

I guess it's possible, but I haven't heard anything like that.

Flyers with heaps of scoring chances and nothing to show for it.

To be fair, they aren't required to disclose that. I would prefer he was playing, but I'm not going to have an aneurysm like some are (in general, not referring to this thread).

Does anyone actually like when broadcasts feature a 'mic'd up' player?

They should stream the audio from those mics uncensored online... that would make it a lot more entertaining

Sure, but if it doesn't get through the sprawling defensman, we'd be here crucifying him

Would rather have seen Simmer shoot for a rebound there.
