Adam, I liked your write up on the Hobey challengers, but surprised you dismissed differences in games played.  Personally, I always insist on x/GP when comparing accumulation stats.  You can likewise normalize CHIP since it is easy, and obviously in need of it.

But bottom line is I enjoyed the review.  I'm not always critical.  Really.

I miss the Coyotes.
You do?
Snowbird. LOL.

The Yotes had objectively great branding and jerseys. Plus they were likeable in a way the Mammoth aren't.

The one and only time I went to an NHL preseason game was when Gretzky was caching the Yotes and the played the Sharks in Portland

We do normalize for games played ... and we ding players for missing games in proportion to the amount of games their team played.
