Line 1
Tavares/Marner/Hyman: 758:34, 53.6ozs%, 54.0cf%, 56.5scf%, 57.1hdcf%, 60.3gf%, 1.033pdo
Bergeron/Pastrnak/Rat: 434:58, 61.9ozs%, 57.1cf%, 57.5scf%, 55.8hdcf%, 54.5gf%, .996pdo
5v5 the leafs top line has been every bit as good as the bruins top line. maybe even better considering the zone deployment.
Line 2
Auston/Willy/Johnsson: 160:48, 53.4ozs%, 54.3cf%, 58.9scf%, 59.8hdcf%, 48.9gf%, 0.977pdo
Krejci/Debrusk/XXXX: 667:49, 65.6ozs%, 56.7cf%, 53.3scf%, 50.6hdcf%, 59.0gf%, 1.009pdo
This hasn't been an advantage for the leafs so far in terms of goals, but really should be going forward. The Leafs line has unsurprisngly been much more dominant, despite not being nearly as sheltered. Bruins probably want Johansson on the other wing if healthy.
Line 3
Kadri/Kapanen/Marleau: 264:58, 48.2ozs%, 55.7cf%, 56.8scf%, 55.7hdcf%, 56.8gf%, 1.009pdo
Coyle/Heinen/XXXXX: 49:39, 26.7ozs%, 44.0cf%, 45.8scf%. 32.6hdcf%, 52.6gf%, 1.003pdo
this has and should be an advantage for the leafs going forward. I'm not sure what the bruins were even thinking getting Coyle to play C, tbh.
Line 4
Ennis/Goat/Moore: 46:06, 30.4ozs%, 48.5cf%, 72.3scf%, 60.3hdcf%, 79.4gf%, 1.131pdo
Ennis/Goat/Brown: 13:45, 00.0ozs%, 59.4cf%, 65.3scf%, 70.3hdcf%, 52.8gf%, .955pdo
Moore/Goat/Brown: 17:40, 22.2ozs%, 35.0cf%, 32.2scf%, 36.6hdcf%, 50.0gf%, 1.000pdo
Kuraly/Acciari/Wagner: 401:55, 32.2ozs%, 52.7cf%, 55.8scf%, 55.6hdcf%, 37.6gf%, .957
bruins have a legit established very good 4th line.....except that Kuraly is injured, and probably not back for the first round, which puts this line in flux just like ours.
Acciari/Nordstrom/Backes: 69:48, 34.5ozs%, 57.2cf%, 60.3scf%, 66.2hdcf%, 62.1gf%, 1.018
Acciar/Wagner/Nordstrom: 53:10, 26.2ozs%, 37.2cf%, 31.9scf%, 29.7scf%, 39.1gf%, .981pdo
probably see them go with that first option there, with Wagner bumped up to the 3rd line.
Overall, the leafs seem to have a fairly significant advantage up front.
Pair 1
Rielly/Hainsey: 1003:10, 50.9ozs%, 50.3cf%, 50.8scf%, 49.9hdcf%, 59.2gf%, 1.039pdo
McAvoy/Chara: 533:17, 50.9ozs%, 56.2cf%, 55.2scf%, 54.7hdcf%, 55.3gf%, .990pdo
The leafs pair has been luckier, but the Bruins pair is obviously more dominant.
Pair 2
Muzzin/Zaits: 270:19, 36.8ozs%, 50.2cf%, 52.7scf%, 51.5hdcf%, 47.2gf%, .997pdo
Krug/Carlo: 437:58, 64.8ozs%, 56.2cf%, 57.1scf%, 54.6hdcf%, 57.2gf%, 1.009pdo
drastically different usage, but still, the bruins pair much more dominant.
Pair 3
Jake/Travis: 107:25, 79.3ozs%, 60.9cf%, 67.0scf%, 72.2hdcf%, 90.1gf%, 1.108pdo
Grz/Miller: 322:43, 43.0ozs%, 51.8cf%, 44.3scf%, 49.0hdcf%, 61.1gf%, 1.014pdo
again drastically different usage, but the Leafs pair is much more dominant.
so our coach is deciding to make the 3rd pair our advantage, and concede the advantage on the top-2 pairs.
I would much prefer we do this instead:
Pair 1
Rielly/Muzzin: 127:46, 58.6ozs%, 56.5cf%, 55.4scf%, 59.8hdcf%, 65.1gf%, 1.052pdo
McAvoy/Chara: 533:17, 50.9ozs%, 56.2cf%, 55.2scf%, 54.7hdcf%, 55.3gf%, .990pdo
Pair 2
Jake/Travis: 107:25, 79.3ozs%, 60.9cf%, 67.0scf%, 72.2hdcf%, 90.1gf%, 1.108pdo
Krug/Carlo: 437:58, 64.8ozs%, 56.2cf%, 57.1scf%, 54.6hdcf%, 57.2gf%, 1.009pdo
Pair 3
Ron/Zaits: 87:36, 20.4ozs%, 38.8cf%, 37.5scf%, 41.3hdcf%, 30.7gf%, .976pdo
Grz/Miller: 322:43, 43.0ozs%, 51.8cf%, 44.3scf%, 49.0hdcf%, 61.1gf%, 1.014pdo
Suddenly the Bruins' advantage on defense literally dissappears if we just deploy our dmen normally - i.e. play our top-4 dmen as top-4 dmen.
even the Bruins seeming advantage on the 3rd pair is probably not real, as Ron/zaits' numbers would likely go up significantly in similarly sheltered 3rd pair usage.
