Most amazing stat of the season
There's some competition for this one:
I don't ever remember seeing that in a regular season game. It was a 65-minute game, mind you, and Dallas had 11 PPs, so you'd expect to see the TOI of your top D-men to be torqued, but 30+ for three guys, and in the 5th game of the season when you're 3-0-1? Good grief.
- (A) there's a team with a negative goal differential on the powerplay, and (B) it's the Ottawa Senators (1 PP GF, 2 SH GA)
- The Canadiens have a zero goal differential on the PK (3 GF, 3 GA)
- A Chicago Blackhawk is leading the league in +/- (it'll be interesting to see how the Hawks do once Havlat goes on his annual suspension for junk-kicking)

What about the fact that 11 of Anaheim's 19 goals have come on special teams? I saw that at BoC, and I couldn't believe it.
What about the fact that I have as many points this season as Rob Blake and Wade Redden combined? Where's my $6 mil?
The Ducks ice-time charts are just bizarre... I was looking at Shane O'Brien's stats after last night's game, given he put up a Gordie Howe hat trick, and he's averaging about 11 minutes per game — which barely registers for a defenceman. It's impressive he's put up the kind of stats he has in such limited TOI.
O'Brien doesn't play much PK (if at all), and is a last-30-second option on the PP, and he doesn't team up with SN or CP.
I'm amazed (given how much time we are in special-teams mode) he even gets 11 minutes a game.
Last night the refs were especially silly. I would have called less than three penalties on the night (excluding fights).
The best +/- for the Flyers right now is 0....it reads like a PGA event with Hatcher as Tiger Woods coming at 10 under par.
Wow, as of last night, thanks to another shortie, Ottawa's now -2 on the powerplay.
