If all players for the Leafs are forever cursed with the stench of piss and failure, Nashville sure got taken to the cleaners!

The higher you are vertically, the higher quality of competition you regularly face (based on their possession stats).

The further to the left you are, the fewer offensive zone starts you've had.

The further to the right you are, the more offensive zone starts you've had.

Red means negative possession (the darker it is, the worse it is.)

Blue means positive possession (Darker being better in this case.)

That he does.

It also says Polak is not great, but he probably is better at his role than Emelin is at his.

But he also starts in his own end a lot more, so it can be expected that the other team would get more shots.

This advanced fancy stats poop is too confusing. Plus, it makes the completely irrational "Player X sucks because he plays for your favorite team, and Player Y is awesome because he plays for my favorite team" arguments way more difficult to have.

How do you figure? He's starting in his own zone. Each team has an equal chance to win a faceoff, which usually happens AFTER a shot attempt. That's not really telling me anything.

Emelin is a (frank)ing expensive spare part. Like the full sized wheel and tire in the trunk of my car.
