Ah, yes, I see. Very interesting.
What does that mean again?
xGA/60 = The amount of expected goals against when that player is on the ice. A lower number is better.
​
Data from Natural Stat Trick. This is at 5v5. Really interesting that Petro has been more or less league average at suppressing xGA over his career. The Blues D-Corp started seeing an increase in xGA/60 in 19-20, (note that Krug was not on the team at this point). While xGA/60 have been going up over the last half decade, the Blues D-Corp more or less followed the league trendline. However, we can see large jumps by Krug, Faulk, Parayko, and Mikkola over the past 3 seasons. Parayko is the only one that has been able to flatten it out.
GA = Goals Allowed in this context? So higher is worse?
I’ve been saying for a while I don’t think Chief is the issue, but I wish they’d make an assistant coach change. We gotta change something up defensively and I think a schematic change would be the easiest thing vs a whole reconstruction of the blue line
It can’t be said enough how fucking awful that Krug contract has been since day 1. You can’t be giving 7 years to a 5’7″ 30yo PP specialist.
The loss of Larry Robinson and his affect on the d corps cannot be overstated.
