Ok. I apologize. He is the most productive ES goal scorer.
Productive: Achieving or producing a significant amount or result.
As he is most productive, that means that the result (scoring goals) is done more by Nash than anyone else when it comes for 5v5 play. As such, again, we can surmise that you want him on the ice over virtually everyone else when it comes to scoring goals. And certainly would want him on the ice over Ovechkin.
No. We can surmise that he scores goals at a per 60 rate better than any other forward who meets the 2000 minute minimum during 5v5 play from 2012-2013 through this season. As has been stated I don't know how many times at this point.
Anything you derive from that moves away from the metric and into analysis.
Further, you can also assist goals. So when you lead the conversation into "WHO DO YOU WANT ON THE ICE!?!" Well, I probably want the guy who has the best chance of scoring a goal, or assisting a goal. That guy is Crosby. I want Crosby on the ice.
This will be my last reply to you in this thread about this topic.
