Nice, but GWG is passed off as "clutch scoring" but lots of times you never know which goal is the GWG until later anyway. For example: Johnny scores the third goal to make it 3-0 and they end up winning 5-2. It's a GWG but was it as clutch as first goal in an important game, an OT goal, a tying goal late? Of course measuring clutch is near impossible, if you want to account for everything. And some GWG's are better than others. Second goal in a 9-1 trouncing versus late in the third to make it 3-2.
