Guest mindfly Report post Posted November 11, 2008 (edited) Interesting read Poor Lebda Ice Time Effectiveness By Bruce MacLeod - Red Wings Corner / November 11, 2008 There's enough weight to this season so far to pull out the ice time effectiveness stat. The following numbers are the number of goals for which individual players are on the ice. If you factor in the amount of ice time logged by players, you can get a number of goals per 60 minutes of ice time that translates to the score of an NHL game. At even strength, forwards are ranked by GF/60 and defensemen are ranked by GA/60. EVEN STRENGTH Forwards, GF-GA, GF/60-GA/60 Hossa 13-4, 4.5-1.4 Franzen 8-7, 4.3-3.8 Datsyuk 12-5, 3.9-1.6 Holmstrom 9-4, 3.5-1.6 Zetterberg 9-8, 3.4-3.0 Team 28-28, 2.7-2.7 Samuelsson 7-7, 2.5-2.5 Filppula 7-9, 2.4-3.1 Cleary 6-9, 2.3-3.4 Hudler 5-9, 2.2-3.9 Kopecky 3-4, 1.6-2.1 Maltby 2-2, 1.3-1.3 Draper 2-8, 0.9-3.8 McCarty 0-2, 0.0-3.9 Defensemen, GF-GA, GF/60-GA/60 Lilja 4-5, 1.7-2.1 Stuart 9-8, 2.6-2.3 Kronwall 12-9, 3.1-2.3 Team 28-28, 2.7-2.7 Lidstrom 14-11, 3.8-3.0 Meech 3-3, 3.0-3.0 Rafalski 14-13, 3.8-3.5 Lebda 0-9, 0.0-3.9 POWER PLAY Forwards, GF, GF/60 Holmstrom 12, 17.9 Hossa 11, 16.8 Datsyuk 11, 15.8 Filppula 1, 14.0 Team 17, 13.8 Hudler 6, 13.1 Franzen 3, 11.5 Zetterberg 5, 9.6 Cleary 2, 7.5 Defensemen, GF, GF/60 Samuelsson 7, 15.3 Lidstrom 11, 14.0 Team 17, 13.8 Rafalski 10, 13.4 Kronwall 6, 12.4 SHORT-HANDED Forwards, GA, GA/60 Draper 1, 1.8 Filppula 1, 2.4 Hossa 1, 2.9 Cleary 2, 3.6 Maltby 1, 5.9 Datsyuk 4, 7.1 Team 12, 7.1 Franzen 2, 12.7 Zetterberg 7, 14.4 Defensemen, GA, GA/60 Lilja 3, 4.0 Rafalski 2, 5.7 Team 12, 7.1 Stuart 6, 9.5 Kronwall 6, 9.8 Lidstrom 12, 11.8 A couple of quick notes ... — The short-handed stats are out of whack because of the great number of goals allowed on 5-on-3. The NHL really should separate special teams stats between 5-on-4 and 5-on-3. Lidstrom was on the ice for four 5-on-3 goals against. Kronwall and Zetterberg were on the ice for three. Datsyuk and Lilja for one, apiece. — At even strength, there are five forwards who are producing above-average offense and it's just the five you'd think: Datsyuk, Holmstrom, Hossa, Zetterberg and Franzen. — Franzen is on his way to a special season if he stays healthy. — Lilja is having a very good start to the season. In the past two seasons, his GF and GA stats have both been high which was surprising given he's a defense-first defenseman. This year, his stats reflect his reputation, low GF and GA. — The Red Wings have two full PP units that have both been excellent, thus the No. 1 rating in the NHL. — Lebda's start has been horrible. On the ice for 0 ESGF and 9 ESGA. Very unusual stat. And it's not his partners' fault because there's no other defenseman near Lebda's stats.
