The second image shows team PDO at the end of last season. And yes the x-axis is alphabetical 🙂

Wouldn’t it make more sense to use sv% and sh% as x,y axis instead?
Vancouver beat us when they had less than 20 shots lol
We should 9-6, instead of 8-7.
I was sitting for a second trying to identify the other axis…it’s the alphabet. Funny stuff.
Looks like the Bruins are sitting right where they finished last year.
Huggy men good at stopping pucks.
Good graphic, but I take issue with one aspect. A team being on a heater doesn’t mean they’re lucky. Sometimes a team is just clicking and playing good hockey. Teams are just unlikely to be on a heater for a whole 82 game season.
If you take a random 15 game sample at any point in the season you’ll find that the teams with the best records in that stretch are all above that green PDO box.
PDO is not just luck.
What is the x axis? Just team name? The green bar seems to indicate some pdo value; why was that value chosen?
Ah yes, the Sharks are… unlucky. Cup incoming
Analytics gets annoying to me. All that really matters is winning.
Calgary sitting right where they were last year. Don’t even know what that means lol
Interesting to see how the data will settle after more games
Oh hey down there
Heh, PDO go brrt
Can someone explain to me what PDO is and why this graph is a good addition for me to understand hockey better in depth? Thank you in advance, I’m noobish to the advanced stats community.
