Around the League 2019-20

[crassbonanza]

However, reg wins and OT wins have always needed to be separate, because they're very different. Ever since 16-17, when the King missed the playoffs by 8 points, but led the league in OT wins, I've been interested in the difference. That same year, the Avs had their 48 point season, but they were 7-2 in OT. They had a league low amount of games that went to OT, so had they gone more often, they may have lost more. They started the season 9-9-0 before the wheels blew up at Thanksgiving, but only 3 of those OT wins came in the first 18 games. Even when they lost every game after that, they still managed to go 4-2 in OT.

ROW was a holdover was from 4v4 OT. That's even different than normal 5v5 play, but it's at least closer to it. Finally the league made the first tie breaker reg wins only. Took too many years to do it.

NHL Hockey Standings

You look at the RW wins, the Kings have 6, and they're down where they should be. A little more separation there. In terms of points in regulation, the Kings are currently only ahead of Det.

ROW was actually a newer stat that came into play with the shootout. Owners wanted a win in regulation/overtime to be worth slightly more than a shootout. I believe the first tie breaker for the playoffs is actually ROW, not regulation wins.

The Kings also have 12 losses in regulation, which puts them where in the league?

That was the whole point of my comment, that simply getting to overtime/shootout can be the difference between being a playoff team and being in the basement. We all understand the Kings suck and are near the bottom of the standings, the interesting part is that their ROW is equal to or better than more than half of the league. I don't really see the point of your comment.

The glass is half empty.

The glass is half empty.

Just the reality of the situation. The glass will be half full when the Kings are in a similar position, but the lineup is dominated by players 21-24 years of age.

It was changed to only regulation wins starting this year.

Interesting, hadn't seen the change. So, it is RW, then ROW, then W.

Crazy shit here in Calgary
Don't see how Peters keeps his job but Calgary has been through so many coaches last six years. I wonder if this ends Peters in the NHL. He is a good coach but cannot drop the N word ever. I am on the fence on this. 1) it was a decade ago 2) it was not directed at a person but at a genre of music 3) players who have used racial slurs only get suspended not fired

i'm staying a mile away from that conversation, all i'm saying is there's a lot of hypocrisy held on the outrage train

Indeed

This also won't be the first time some one was brought down because of slurs from a while back

Also, Akim Aliu has had problems everywhere he ever went.

Also, Akim Aliu has had problems everywhere he ever went.

he has but i loved how he responded to Downie in the CHL. Also thought he was going to turn into a pretty damn good NHLer.

Just because he has had issues in the past does not mean he needs to be around that crap though either (not saying you said he should be)

Bill Peters be like

 

[FrozenKing18]

 

[kovacro]

Yeah, that's probably no bueno for Bill.

 

[Bandit]

Peters sounds like a real piece of work.

 

[bouncesonly]

I see Bill didn’t do what Bill did:

[YP44]

those are huge allegations if true.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Lotta skeletons falling out of closets today but it's good that people are rushing to corroborate allegations, too. Has to feel good, for example, for Aliu to be getting that kind of support near-immediately upon stepping out.

Well, unless he reads the main board.

Wouldn't surprise me in the least. This piece of shit human:

Todd S. Sharinn | Gilbride, Tusa, Last & Spellane LLC

berated me my entire last season of midget hockey in SCAHA culminating in him threatening to beat me up in the locker room after the second to last game of the season, in front of the entire team. He had to be restrained, while saying "I'll do it because you're 18 now". What was the fallout you ask? I was kicked off the team before the final game.

This was SCAHA, I can only imagine what it's like in juniors where the stakes are real.

 

[Bandit]

Well, unless he reads the main board.

"Just boys being boys!"

 

[tny760]

all i know is carcillo better be ready to justify claiming sexual abuse against that guy

you wanna claim a guy said mean words to you, cool, claiming he's kiddie diddler is a whole nother ball game

he's sounding an awful lot like the paranoid schizophrenic type lately

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Also, Akim Aliu has had problems everywhere he ever went.

That's because he didn't want to partake in bullshit hazing rituals. He was man enough to stand up to a guy who was bullying him. And others are also corroborating other abusive incidents involving Bill Peters.

I was done with SCAHA when an opposing player called me a towelhead and when my coach got wind of it, attacked me instead of the opposing player

Thank goodness for bleached 90s hair allowing me to be minority incognito until my late teens I guess.
