Goaltracker 2019

[Lods]

Are we still doing the Goal tracker?

We are...its completed up to round 4
I'll do this weeks in the next day or two

I suspect (know) we're now ahead of last year for points for and I know for sure our percentage is much better after Round 5

On those numbers, we're conceding 4 goals a game less every game, on average.

That's impressive - and puts us in many games (as we have been) that previously we would have been out of....

If you ignore everything else and just look at the percentage we've made significant progress this season.

As I mentioned in another thread, at the start of the season the percentage can fluctuate dramatically due to the fact you're dealing with small numbers in the for and against columns.

A 50 point win or loss in round 5 will impact your percentage much more than a 50 point win/loss will in round 20.

We jumped more than 10 percentage point off the back of a good win.
It also helps us that most of our games have been low scoring affairs from both sides.

But yep...it's better to have it moving in a positive direction

It is the most impressive part of our season so far...
We're 9th best in terms of points scored against us at the moment.
This time last year we were 17th

Of course but last year that game in PA for example would have been a 50+ point loss almost guaranteed. I think 5 rounds is a fair sample size. Nearly a quarter of the season.

So good progress so far and hoping for a 14 point win this week which if my maths is correct would move us above the dawks on the ladder.

That list is deceptive... It's E.  Curnow with the goals in 2019, not C.  Curnow, which changes the distribution dramatically.

Yep
Sorry.
I've had to check myself a couple of times this year to make sure I distinguish between the C and the E rather than just putting down Curnow.
Fixed.

That works both ways though Lods.

Maybe we beat the hawks by 50 this week.  ;D
