Natural Stat Trick added some breakdown data to their team section today that, if the data is to be trusted, will finally bring some conclusion to what happened last season (not to mention going forward)

Basically they added more detail to their tables including medium and low danger splits as well as shot spits for high, medium and danger.

It allows you to dig into the teams much deeper beyond simple shot attempts as you can dice them by danger level, but also ignore shot attempts altogether if you wish and go into shots

Were the Flames a perimeter team with good shot metrics last season?

Ranks

Shot Attempts
CF% 3rd

Shot attempts broken into difficulty

High 2nd
Medium 7th
Low 4th

Pretty consistent across all three types

Shots on Goal
SF% 4th

High 4th
Medium 11th
Low 12th

Good sign as they were ranked higher in frequency for out shooting their opponents in high danger situations

All in all ... a team with bad finishers and or bad luck, but they were out playing the opposition.

This season?

Shot Attempts
CF% 5th

Shot attempts broken into difficulty

High 13th
Medium 3rd
Low 7th

Shots on Goal
SF% 10th

High 15th
Medium 5th
Low 10th

This year splits not quite as dangerous, but still a positive as the medium group is strong.
