Statistics Notes

GP - games played
W - regulation time wins
otW - overtime wins
soW - shootout wins
L - regulation time losses
otL - overttime and shootout losses
Pts - points [(W + otW + soW) * 2 + otL]
W.pct - winning percent [regulation time wins / GP]
pct - percentage [(Pts / (GP * 2)]
GF - goals for, tooltip TGF/G is team goals for average per game
GA - goals against, tooltip TGA/G is team goals against average per game
GD - goal difference
GR - games remaining on schedule

! Points and percentage standings do not calculate position based on division leadership rules.
! Added otW and soW due to tie-breaker 2 at nhl.com: The greater number of games won, excluding games won in the Shootout (NEW for 2010-11). These are three point games.(feb.22.2011)
! Home and Away W includes overtime wins (otW) and shootout wins (soW).

pct is a measure of probability of gaining points in a game, based on a team's season performance to date.

Max is computed as (Pts + points if win all remaining games of the 82 game schedule) thus:
(Pts + ((82-GP)*2)). This can help determine if a team can make the playoffs, if you assume making the playoffs require some specific number (e.g. 92) of points.

.500 is computed as completing the 82 game schedule with the current points and playing .500 for remaining games.

Form is computed as completing the 82 game schedule at the current winning percentage (pct * 82*2).

Last10 is computed as current Pts + win at rate of last 10 games percentage for remainder of schedule.

Blend is computed as average of Form and Last10. There may be better weights to apply to these statistics, but for now it is 50-50, thus the last 10 are rated as important as the proceeding season.

Home / Away Ratio measures a team's rate of wins at home versus rate of wins on the road. It is computed as (Home Wins / Home Games) / (away Wins / away Games). A value of 1.0 indicates the team wins at home at the same rate as on the road. A value greater than 1.0 shows a tendency to a better home record, a value less than 1.0 shows a tendency to perform better on the road.

PtsExcess is calculated as (total Wins x 2 + OT points) / (total Wins x 2). This is a measure of how OT points effect total points for the season.

EGame(Elimination Game) is a statistic computed as the game at which a team will be eliminated from the playoffs, if it continues to play at current percentage. The value is determined based on the previous season's cutoff for eighth place in the conference or average of thos for leauge standigs. The value is predictive, but based on last year and does not compute all the NHL tie-breakers. A value of -1 indicates a team will make the playoffs.

EGame calculation: if we use 94 points as the playoff upset, then the formula is thus:

pct x EGame x 2 + (82 - EGame) x 2 <= 94

simplifying, we get this:

pct x EGame  + 82 - EGame  = 47

(82 - 47)  = EGame- pct x EGame

35  = EGame(1-pct)

EGame= (35)/(1-pct)

EGame is based on 93 points to make the playoffs.
