I dove into the numbers and found six NHL defensemen playing great defensive hockey in tough minutes - and not getting the recognition for it yet. Including Kaiden Guhle and Cam York, hopefully you can start giving them some at @dailyfaceoff.bsky.social www.dailyfaceoff.com/news/6-nhl-d...
Six NHL defensemen not getting enough recognition for their defensive play

PWHL shot share update after December 17th:
Ottawa and Boston held fairly even in that regard on Tuesday, so neither team sees significant improvement from where they stood before

Not to take away from Laughton’s accomplishment, but scoring four goals when two are in empty nets is barely a hat trick, never mind a four-goal game

Obviously playing the Ducks vs. the Devils would make it a bit easier, but rhe Leafs definitely missed Jake McCabe. Might have even been more missed than Matthews based on his defensive impact.

I'm going to try my best to start churning out some form of team-based analytics for PWHL teams this season with whatever data is available. Right now, that's just shot share at all strengths, but these should get a bit less neanderthalic as more data becomes available
