More for me it records nothing about what the player did that led to the plus or the minus, if anything. Example - I’ve seen Huberdeau get a minus from the opposite side of the ice - nothing to do with him. I’ve seen Coleman score on a transition just when Huberdeau got off on the line change. No plus for Huberdeau.
