Not a math guy by any means, but I still think that the idea that a team's PDO should regress to the mean assumes everything else being equal. But of course, it isn't equal, as some teams have better goalies and better scorers.
Hilarious that the expansion Thrashers is the example of historically bad PDO. Does anyone think they were unlucky? Check out their lineup: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1999%E2...rashers_season.

O.K. there has been a lot of talk on whether or not MacTavish has actually done a good job for us, most fans on this board are very basic in their analysis and I feel would change their opinion entirely if the team was successful.
