@ProducerDrew_ @CanesConvert It's a simulation with parameters that have a degree of variance. A different sample of simulated games is generated each time, which is why the stats fluctuate.

@behrozsaadat @waterboy204 @david_parker Google what median means

@MikeBartner Pacific division merchant ;)

@JibblePuss @ProducerDrew_ Its about 1 in 5700 for a player to score 5 in a game.

@vancanuckpain @JFreshHockey Makar was literally the fastest dman ever to 250 points and 4th fastest to 500.

[Mike Sullivan @MikeSullivanR]

@ChxinsawPunk @jake_heerwagen @AvsSparky I believe he's around 8, and similar in GSA/60

[Mike Sullivan @MikeSullivanR]

@BuffaloComicGuy @bigheadhcky Tiny sample size, this will reduce dramatically. MacKinnon's numbers are based on 5x the data.

[Mike Sullivan @MikeSullivanR]

@IglooOfPens @JFreshHockey Sorokin.

@MikeBartner Think MacK takes a bit of a hit to his confidence that takes a while to overcome after this? Or does he successfully channel it to ratchet up his intensity to higher levels than ever.

[Mike Sullivan @MikeSullivanR]

@MikeBartner @Lightn1ngStr1k3 1 goal (4 nations), 0 assists in the four biggest games of his career is a brutal statline though. And it looks much rougher because it's such a big difference compared to his typical production.

[Mike Sullivan @MikeSullivanR]

@amato_mike He's a great player and was great offensively but had two egregious plays. Obviously the play on Boldy, but also an egregious turnover in the high slot to Nelson that could have cost Canada the game earlier.

[Iain MacIntyre @imacSportsnet]

9 out of 10 times, MacKinnon scores into the semi-open net. Breakaways by McDavid and Celebrini, 2 1-timers from the hashmarks by Celebrini, save on the goal line by McAvoy. Canada played phenomenally. Every once in a while, it’s someone else’s turn. Proud of 🍁.

[Mike Sullivan @MikeSullivanR]

@JhanHky Maybe on the PP. But hard to say he's an inefficient shooter when he's leading the NHL in goals by a solid margin.

[Mike Sullivan @MikeSullivanR]

@BBKelly99 @NHL_Muse @penguinsmuse_ Yzerman over Orr is a choice...

[Mike Sullivan @MikeSullivanR]

@LookiePoookie @odelllrry Bednar has also deserved 1 or 2. The Avs were one of the worst teams in history in 2017-2018 when he came into the league.

[Mike Sullivan @MikeSullivanR]

@godlewski_g @NHL_Muse @OilersNation @oilersdaily @oilersaccess @Avs_Daily @Celebrini_Muse Makar is generational. He was the fastest defenseman ever to 250 points. If you want to say, is probably generational but needs a few more seasons that's probably reasonable though

[Mike Sullivan @MikeSullivanR]

@TemLassila @NHL I mean yeah, if you select out the portion of a season where players are doing poorly it paints an unrealistic production pace lol

[Mike Sullivan @MikeSullivanR]

@EastCoastSJSFan @NHL_Muse Pretty hard to be worse than Winnipeg

[Mike Sullivan @MikeSullivanR]

@JFreshHockey Do you think Nate's pace will similarly come down? Obviously the delta between his average sh% and this season's isn't nearly as large, but still considerable

[Mike Sullivan @MikeSullivanR]

@sabre_talk @23sabres The Avs also have by far the best record against the East in the NHL (14-4-2). They're points % is inflated by playing in the West, but they've still been far better against the East than any Eastern team
