Considering Wilson said Blues would miss playoffs entirely, it's not a shock he thinks games with an equal number of high danger shots, Blues with more medium danger shots, and Wild with many more low danger shots is the Wild outplaying St. Louis. Not sure what his hard on against St. Louis is, but it doesn't come from actually watching the games.

Not sure where you get all your numbers from, but my numbers say your numbers are wrong.

- j.boyd919

I think these are just the 5v5 numbers right? I think for single game/playoff series would be important to include special teams numbers too.

If Sprong's team is eliminated, is he eligible to be called to Pittsburgh?

Yeah it's just 5v5. The majority of games are played at even strength and are considered a better indicator of how teams are playing vs. each other. I would definitely look at those 5v5 numbers, but I wouldn't lump them together, but just looking at those numbers, it's easy to understand why one would say the Wild outplayed the Blues the majority of the game (since the majority of games are played at 5v5.)

I don't want him to play in nhl in this playoffs. let him win the memorial cup and mvp instead. then he can join the ahl and win the calder cup and then join the nhl and win the stanley cup

With Kunitz taking Wilson or Rowney's spot...and waiting on Hagelin return...

Is it crazy to think Sprong could take the spot of the remaining Wilson/Rowney?

Not the best developmental move....but speed and skill are what made Toronto a tough out...

Thornton may call it quits. He was playing through a torn MCL and ACL in the playoffs.

Not picking an analytical fight, but talking about the Habs loading up with possession black holes, who were the Rags best possession players out of interest compared to the grit & character Habs?

That's how the analytics guys fight their battles..........

Justify their opinion by showing 'a form of statistic' that shows 'numbers' supporting it leaving out all sorts of other 'important information'!
