Even Strength Shooting of the New Jersey Devils Forwards: 2007-2010
Today, Tyler Dellow at mc79hockey followed up something he did last year by looking at the ESS/60, or the even strength shooting rate per 60 minutes, of the Edmonton Oilers. His original post on the topic (which I have yet to find as of this writing) had this intriguing finding, quoted in his post...
ILWT Audition: Rockin’ The Rock: A Look at the Devils Attendance at Prudential Center
Over a week ago, I put out the call looking for new writers for In Lou We Trust to write about the New Jersey Devils. I've opened up the audition to the community at large in order to get a new perspectives and additional voices on the front page with regularity. Since then, I've received...
Analyzing Brian Rolston's Performance as a New Jersey Devil - Part 2
Yesterday evening, I've began taking a closer look at Brian Rolston's performance as a New Jersey Devil. Requests for such an analysis were requested by the users, and frankly, I figured it's a nice change of pace from looking at free agents. Don't worry, I'll begin looking at unrestricted free...
A Reason to Support Ilya Kovalchuk - The 2009-10 New Jersey Devils Roster by PDO
One of the big reasons I'm so interested in advanced statistics is because they provide a different perspective into a player's performance. For example, we know that Ilya Kovalchuk is a goal scorer. He's scored 338 goals in 631 games in his NHL career. This is simple. But how impressive has...
What Makes a #1 Defenseman a #1 Defenseman?
One of the larger questions I've grown to ponder over the last week when putting all of these posts together about Paul Martin (recap: here, here, here, here, here, ultimately concluding that he's the most effective defenseman available on the marker this summer and concluding that the Devils...
Pre-Free Agency Projection of the 2010-11 New Jersey Devils Defense
After spending most of last week writing up Paul Martin (here, here, here, here, and here) and ultimately concluding that he's the most effective defenseman available on the marker this summer, I think now is a good of a time as any as to discuss what next season's blueline may look like for New...
In 5-on-5 Penalties Drawn to Taken, New Jersey Devils Around Average over Last 3 Seasons
In continuing to look at penalties drawn and penalties taken at 5-on-5, I looked at the past three seasons to determine how the New Jersey Devils as a whole combined in each. I discovered that Zach Parise has drawn the most calls by far; that Bryce Salvador and David Clarkson "contributed" the...
New Jersey Devils Penalties Drawn & Taken at 5-on-5 Over the Last Three Seasons
Literally a week ago, I put together a post looking at how the 2009-10 New Jersey Devils drew and took penalties at even strength, 5-on-5 play. After all, if the Devils' power play is going to need improvement, drawing a few more calls would help. Plus, the penalty kill would benefit if we can...
Paul Martin: The Most Effective Defenseman Available on the Market This Summer
Over the last few days, I've focused a lot of attention on New Jersey Devils defenseman Paul Martin. Before jumping into this final post about Martin (for at least the next few days), I'd like to explain what has gone on - in case you all missed it. It all started back when I did an entire...

Yesterday was Paul Martin Monday, with a With or Without You analysis posted overnight and a three part analysis focusing on his even strength performance in 2008-09 (Part 1), his even strength performance in 2009-10 (Part 2), and his special teams on-ice impact in both seasons (Part 3).
