I've read about an interesting statistic today. Since 2005/2006 Vanek appears to be the most efficient goal scorer in the NHL (only considering players with 1000+ shots). For example: Vanek 1351 sog, 212 goals, 15.7% Ovi 2559 sog, 306 goals, 12% Perry 1368 sog, 172 goals, 12.6% I was quite surprised, I've always thought Vanek misses way too many opportunities. |

Vanek obviously has some amazing goal scoring stats but the numbers here may be skewed a tiny bit. 1. Vanek is an inside the paint type of shooter. Ovie and perry do that as well but take a lot more shots from the outside. It's like comparing dunks between a center and a point guard. 2. Total shots might be slightly different. I know Ovie misses a lot of shots as well and I'm too lazy to look this up but the stat above listed is just shots on goal. Either way, I'd rather have Vanek over Perry. |

Yeah I compared that to a lot of other shooters on the team and basically all scoring players were ahead of him. My bad. He has 13 points on the season. I'm not exactly complaining about him this season. |

Either way, just an observation. |

I've been back a lot lately. I don't mind it over there other than the complete lack of modding due to webmaster not giving any fucks. |

If a shot hits the post or crossbar, I don't think it's counted as a shot since the goalie didn't save it also. |

I was referring to the assumed total of shots on goal + missed shots = Total amount of shots taken. I don't know how accurate the NHL records it, but it's definitely a stat. |
