Kakve odbrane ove nedelje..



Quick jedna prejebena odbrana, aa tek je na 4. ili 5. mestu..

Ovaj Backstrom Nema nedelje da nije u Top 10 . Ali ove Halaka i Elisa su najbolje.

Zanimljiv tekst na koji sam naleteo.. Da li ste skloni riziku?

Studies have shown that people prefer not losing to winning. So for poolies, this means that because most of us are naturally risk averse (ja nisam vala ) we'd rather stay middle-of-the-pack instead of risking everything for a chance at a championship. This sounds like the fantasy version of the old saying that folks would rather be in the box than giving the eulogy at a funeral.
Don't feel too badly though; there are examples of decision-makers in the NHL acting exactly the same way.
For example, two Canadian university professors, David Beaudoin and Tim Swartz, argued that NHL coaches act too conservatively when pulling their goalies. Inspired by a controversial decision by the head coach of the Quebec Remparts (QMJHL), Patrick Roy, to pull his goalie with 12:22 remaining in the third period, the profs decided to look deeper into the decision.
Conventional wisdom in North America is that a team should pull its goaltender with about a minute to go if they are down by a goal, and by as much as two minutes if down by two.
Using a statistical model (based on the 2007-08 NHL season), they determined that pulling the goalie with three minutes remaining or more actually maximized the chance for victory in a number of common scenarios, such as being behind by a goal and playing at even strength.
But it's a gutsy call. Roy's team didn't come back from the deficit and in the aftermath it became clear that even St. Patrick wasn't exempt from the fall-out of going against tradition in a sport so well-known for its conservatism.
Even still, maybe we should take a lesson from a goaltender known for winning, and go all in for sake of glory.

Sve to ovisi od HC .

Pročitah i ja to. I onda sam video da ga je Patrick Roy sklonio s gola. Onda sam se samo nasmejo.
Mada, juče su Leafsi dobili empty-netter tri i po minuta do kraja...

Kretenizam klasicni,eto sta ja mislim.Roy misli da je popio svu pamet svijeta pa izvlaci golmana na 12 minuta do kraja.Bravo maestro Mogu ovi analiticari i statisticari da pricaju sta hoce,ali u NHL ovo nece zazivjeti.U nizim ligama mozda ce to neko da tolerise,ali na najvecoj pozornici tesko.

"Talk about rebound control..."

Broj 2..

Finalisti za Vezinu..

Roberto Luongo

Luongo backstopped the Canucks to their finest regular season in franchise history, capturing the Presidents' Trophy for best record and posting the lowest team goals-against average (2.20). Luongo went 38-15-7 in 60 appearances, registering the best goals-against average in his 11-year NHL career (2.11) and his top save percentage since joining the Canucks in 2006-07 (.928). He tied for the League lead in victories, ranked second in goals-against average and fourth in save percentage. Luongo is a Vezina finalist for the third time, having finished third in the voting in 2004 and second in 2007.

Pekka Rinne

Rinne played a critical role in securing the Predators' sixth playoff berth in the past seven seasons by registering career-best totals in all major categories, going 33-22-9 with a 2.12 goals-against average, .930 save percentage and six shutouts in 64 games. He ranked second among NHL goaltenders in save percentage and placed third in goals-against average. Beginning with a 4-1 win at Minnesota on New Year's Eve, the first-time Vezina Trophy finalist started 42 of the Predators' final 46 games, allowing two goals or fewer 28 times. He posted 25 wins in that span, second in the League behind San Jose's Antti Niemi (27).

Tim Thomas

Thomas enjoyed a record-setting bounceback season after undergoing off-season hip surgery. He won his first eight decisions, which broke a club record set by Tiny Thompson in 1937-38, and won his first nine road games -- becoming the first NHL goaltender to do so since Chicago's Glenn Hall in 1965-66. The 2009 Vezina Trophy winner finished the season with a 35-11-9 record and .938 save percentage, eclipsing Dominik Hasek's .937 with Buffalo in 1998-99 as the best since the statistic was introduced in 1976-77. Thomas also led all goaltenders in goals-against average (2.00) and ranked second in shutouts (nine).

Ma ja sam za TT-a..

Tim Thomas all the way.
