A primer on advanced hockey statistics.
The New Jersey Devils are above average when it comes to possession this season. How do they stack up to past Devils teams and the NHL? By using the Fenwick percentages at Behind the Net, I make the comparison in this post.
Is the Penguins' slump a good indication of who the team is, or will things get better?
Advanced stats tell a story about the hot and cold teams in the NHL.
Peter DeBoer's coaching style has hints of a Brent Sutter influence and is taking advice from Jacques Lemaire as camp begins. In looking back at how those coaches have done with the team, it'll be up to DeBoer to continue the trend of the New Jersey Devils being a strong possession team since 2007.
The New Jersey Devils performed better under Jacques Lemaire than John MacLean last season. I show how much better by possession statistics from Time on Ice between the two head coaches in various even strength situations
While preparing for a preview for tomorrow's New Jersey Devils and New York Rangers game, I do a follow up on each team's puck possession stats at even strength for the season. The Devils are still better than the Rangers and I show by how much.
