More second unit stuff ...
interesting that 2nd units across the league have averaged 9.8 goals this season. That's it. The Flames had five coming into the game, but now have 8.
the average production rate is 1.13 / 60 minutes of powerplay time, or just over a goal an hour. Teams average three powerplays per game which is 6 minutes (if they don't score). Second units average 43% of the powerplay time in a game.
Have to wonder if it was a bit of hockey marketitis making the 2nd unit take some heat in Calgary. None of them are productive.
