PP actually went ice cold again the last bunch of games. Still looks dangerous tho.

So it looks like this is how the Leafs ended up vs. Strength of Schedule this year:


Vs. Top-10: 22gms, 112pt pace, +0.50gdiff/gm
Vs. Bot-10: 26gms, 136pt pace, +1.27gdiff/gm

So they were pretty great vs the top teams, and took care of business very nicely against the bottom teams.

The problem?

Vs. Mid-12: 33gms, 82pt pace, -.21gdiff/gm

they stunk against the bubblish teams.

This includes bubblish team Ottawa, who the leafs went 0-3 against with a -6 gdiff.

 

[BG]

Just call Ottawa an elite team, problem solved.

 

[Habsy]

They proved to be more than a bubble team. They finished ahead of NJ.

New Jersey has been decimated by injuries and their coach is Keefe. If NJ had Hughes and Dougie all year they'd be well ahead of the sens

Maybe. Allen has been better than historically though.

ah cool the stars are losing 5-1.

that means the Leafs clinch 4th overall on the season.

neat.

 

[Preston]

Where's that dude that said they'll miss the playoffs this year

So in the end:

East: 1450pts, 527 regulation wins
West: 1445pts, 513 regulation wins

Closer than it's been a while, but the East still better this year. And it's only really close because the west had more OT pts against each other.

 

[zeke]

ATL: 737pts, 269rw
CEN: 735pts, 263rw
MET: 713pts, 259rw
PAC: 710pts, 250rw


Central took a run at us this year, but the Atlantic still the best division in hockey.

 

[zeke]

Leafs vs Strength of Schedule:

Vs. 1-8: 106pt pace, +0.41gd/gm
Vs 9-16: 82pt pace, -0.24gd/gm
Vs 17-24: 103pt pace, +0.04gd/gm
Vs 25-32: 144pt pace, +1.55gd/gm

Vs. Top-10: 112pt pace, +0.50gd/gm
Vs. Mid-12: 93pt pace, -0.27gd/gm
Vs. Bot-10: 136pt pace, +1.27gd/gm


So really good against the good teams and the bads. Very mid against the mid teams tho.

Season Totals:



​

I mean it's mostly blue which is good, but the 5v5 nerdies are very mediocre. The PP is good (though in a bit of a slump to end the year), and the PK just hasn't been very good. The team's shooting talent and goaltending talent seems pretty real though.

Since Deadline:




​

A bit better. The 5v5 defensive nerdies moved into solid "good" territory, but the offensive nerdies dropped too. The PP went supersaiyan before cooling off, and the PK kinda fell apart.
