Alternative theory Eller got really worried about those drones in New Jersey and went to investigate and got rabies when he was bitten by an infected squirrel.

Wrong thread, it was stats stuff.

For anyone who doesn't track, every Sunday JFresh puts out a number of sheetz with various team stat rankings. I always appreciate seeing them. I hesitate to embed all of them both for size and to avoid any appearances of posting full proprietary content. But I know some here doesn't use sheeter, so I'll only post the ones he's done so far today (in spoiler tags to help reduce clutter). More will come through the afternoon.

If you value this kind of thing, consider giving him money. https://www.patreon.com/jfreshhockey. (I do, even though I don't put a lot of stock in most "conclusions" that get drawn from this type of analysis.)

Please stop….especially the asking for money part.

Sounds like maybe whatever Eller has (COVID?) is working its way through the lockerroom? I can't imagine it's not illness related with how much they've talked about how good the locker room has been this year.

Pink Eye and Rabies are the current theories. Just saying...

Probably whatever the current lower respiratory infection variant is devastating the DMV area and me at the moment.

Pro and Dubois together...


These guys are really developing a complementary style of possession and board work and similar instincts, shutting down top lines and scoring too?

The Selke Bros

 

[EXTRAS]

Why is protas who is 2nd in the team in points behind only strome not on the 1st or 2nd PP? Makes no sense to me.

It Seems Like Everyone In The World Has A Persistent Cough Right Now: Here's What Experts Are Saying About This Symptom

It's not COVID or the flu. If you've been sick for a few weeks and have tested negative for everything, here's what's going on.

Almost Christmas-break GAR update:

Notes:
-Sandin and Wilson are 99th and 98th percentiles respectively
-Dubois is a 97th percentile player. He started out a bit slow, though still better than most expected. But now he is on another level. 25 points in 33 games is very good, but his impacts are felt all over the ice. This is everything they could have asked for and more out of PLD.
-Connor McMichael is at the 77th percentile in GAR, so half of the team is at that mark or better.
-It's great that they're giving Lapierre a chance but he's been the clear weak link in the lineup. I don't think they should keep him in the lineup much longer, especially with Ovechkin coming back soon. He needs a reset.

Yep, had pneumonia last month. Dr said he's never seen this many cases in the area ever before.

Had that in September. It was awful.

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

Just a little gambling note, the caps used to be easy money for over 5.5 goals

Now they’re defense and goalies are too good and it almost never hits anymore. That’s not a bad thing.
