GDT: Sabres @ Rangers 7 PM ET TV:MSG Radio:WGR550

[NotABadPeriod]

The possession stats are gruesome again. UPL with 3 goals saved over expected (0.77 5v5) carries the day again.

I wonder how much of that is score effects, because when the game was close it felt much more even.

 

[BFLO]

Win the next one and it’s another 3 game winning streak and we’re back to .500

Just try not to follow it up with a 3 game losing streak again

 

[Chainshot]

Every forward had a point tonight. Quinn and Benson had 2.

Benson-Quinn-Cozens as the 3 stars.

 

[My Cozen Dylan]

On paper, the Rangers should blow us out.

…which means we will win 5-2.

I was close.

Crazy. Sometimes you just catch a good team on an off night.

Well they were down multiple goals early and five goals with nearly half a game to go. Score effects happen.

The difference between giving up chances and giving up no doubters is dumb defensemen. Guy who leave their assignments or don’t even know where they are. Guys who…say…Owen Power has stared at after several goals for years wondering why they are where they are.

It was pretty even 5v5 until Buffalo scored their 3rd.

All situations NYR were ahead like 1.5 - .4 when Sabres scored their second.

Rangers dominated all 3 periods at all strengths. At 5v5 it was even and low event the first 2 periods, but we got blown out in the 3rd.

you are right in the red wings game and the Islanders it's so subjective linemates d pairing w , game situation not a perfected stat still surpassed by the ole Pejorative Sluro plus minus



situational w added context it's a valuable stat but as an overall game stat?

 

[Chainshot]

Sabers are going to leapfrog Rangers to be 3rd at Goal Differential above expected 5v5. Virtually all of that is from the last two games.

Goaltending has been big. Feels like Luukkonen did his best work when down a man tonight. It made things seem a lot more in control which is pleasantly different.

Yeah UPL has been on a heater. He made a lot of timely saves on the PK.

To be honest I think you have very little grasp of what these numbers mean

Stay safe Mike.

 

[Ace]

it’s also worth noting that possession tends to end when you…you know…score on it a bunch of times.

 

[K8fool]

okay I'll try

it doesn't reward a team if possession is kept outside or weighted w a large lead for significance .

do they separate stats per period I'd aquiesse more w game tight in first period but I felt we dominated that game emotionally

goodnight gentleman, it's been a pleasure these last two games

 

[K8fool]

Win the next one and it’s another 3 game winning streak and we’re back to .500

Just try not to follow it up with a 3 game losing streak again

one last that's the key to the playoffs coming back hard and physical after any loss


lindy definitely preaches this as chain writing says he's letting them all hang themselves

MSG is also well known for their terrible stat counting. Lafferty had more xG than Tage tonight lol

 

[AtlantaHockeyFanatic]

Tage is looking like his old self and I love it

 

[EichHart]

Are we back again?
