What is average GF60 and GA60? How do the Flames’ leaders compare league-wide?

Both teams scored on their first shots, but, my guys never, really, seemed competitive. Wolf looks to be a keeper, although I have liked Vladar's games against us too.


Flames sweep the season series, and should circle the games against my guys for next year as "should win or there is a problem."

Do you mean xGF60?

the "x" adds expected and is based on events that happen offensively when they're on the ice (shots from different locations in different scenarios).

Elite xGF60 is 3.00 or greater, only 41 players have that mark with 500 or more minutes played.

Only 19 players have xGA60 with 500 minutes of action under 2.00.

The assists (and Pelletier goals) were great, but it wasn't just that - Kerins! was solid all over the ice. His positioning was good, he made smart plays, he had good vision, he just looked like he belonged.

I went into it thinking it's great that he got a call-up, he earned it, but I never expected that there was an actual NHLer there. Obviously it's only one game, but as Bingo said, he has earned another game, and that's all he could do last night. And he did it in spades.

After watching the highlights, it was interesting to see Kerins as noticeable as he was, especially his willingness to drive himself up the middle and get into hard areas.

I'm not sure he has the skating and shot to stick long term or not, but a few more appearances like last night and he may be one of those x factor guys that just finds a way to be productive.
