Un regard sur les Islanders de 2014-2015, qui étaient d’élite en attaque à 5 contre 5 mais qui n’ont pas pu terminer ou défendre. Une équipe de 101 points qui s’est inclinée en 7 face aux Caps au premier tour.

These are all league-wide percentiles, not the actual numbers themselves.
Forwards are compared to all other NHL forwards, defensemen to all other NHL defensemen. Minimum 15 games played.
I used the Natural Stat Trick expected goals model, SVA meaning “score and venue adjusted”.
Even Strength Time On Ice is just a measure of who plays more and who plays less.
x(Expected) Offense and Defense percentiles refer to a players play driving at 5v5. Players with high amounts of scoring chances and shots while on the ice are in higher offense percentiles. Players that suppress shots and prevent scoring chances against are in higher defense percentiles. Some players are great at both, some are poor at both.
Penalty differential measures whether a player draws or commits more penalties.
On-Ice Line Finishing refers to the rate above expected in which a player and his linemates are converting their offensive chances into goals.
On-Ice Goaltending is a measure of how the goaltender is performing behind a particular player, relative to expectation.
D-Zone start bias percentile relates to how a player is deployed off the bench after a whistle, starting a new shift. Higher percentage meaning more D-Zone shift starts, lower percentage the opposite.
Crazy how young this team was outside of Lubo
Lee and Nielsen with some of the dumbest and funniest lookin headshots ever lol
This was the team when I became a real fan. Will always have a soft spot for them. Garth tried.
Losing Lubo and not playing Lee. Sigh.
Isles lost that series due to lacking a pure finisher next to Tavares, and the PP going something like 0-15. They would’ve won game 4 had they finished on just one of those PP’s.
That game 7 was so disappointing. I think they had something like 16 shots. Maybe less.
The Islanders still remain a very good 5v5 team. Special teams has been their downfall.
Remember this team looking like they had absolutely no idea what they were doing once they hit their own blue line and back. Lamberts Islanders was reminding me of them a bit
The only reason Josh Bailey wasn’t the whipping boy on this team is because Brain Strait was on this roster and Cappy played him over half the year which drove people crazy!
