Red Zone: Poise, Pride, and Depth Propel Cornell to Strong Start

Quote...Cornell is the only team in the top five of the Pairwise without a player among the nation's top 15 scorers.

In fact, there's no Cornell player in the top 35.

And that, says Yates, is actually part of the game plan — with Cornell complementing the nation's second-best statistical defense with a balanced offense that's averaging over 3.4 goals per game.

"Our team is very deep," Yates said of a roster that includes five NHL draft picks. "We roll four lines, and every line has the ability to score, and that's been huge for us..."

Is that Top 15 and 35 in Points or PPG? I would think that the former stat is misleading for schools which have played fewer games. OTOH misleading stats seems to be in vogue in the US recently.

If they are going off CHN it's PPG.
