Bonus fun fact! League shooting percentage is up again, so he may have even more regression room than just to his career average

There's been some weird stuff the past couple of years with the PBP, but it looks like it's stabilized between last year and this year. I guess the difference could be explained by Corey using his own definition of shot attempt separate from the NHL's

The Last Jedi was boring to me in a way that only Attack of the Clones really compares to, but at least the arena battle was cool when I was 10

The highlight, is an explanation of the impact of recording changes on shot rates, particularly the recent trend towards fewer shots on net, which methodology changes have pretty conclusively contributed to, IMO

It’s apparently not a shot for Walker or a goal against Woll www.shapshotshockey.com/p/yes-own-go...
Yes, own goals officially exist in the NHL
I had no idea until this week. So I did some research.

Up to a 99 point pace now too. Amazing what a healthy offseason and a competent power play can do

I didn’t see a similar game-by-game drop in his skating metrics to the way his shot metrics dropped, but it does seem like he’s been less aggressive about activating offensively all year

He’s apparently been dealing with an injury the past couple of weeks. He wasn’t great before then but he really fell off a cliff around game 9 or 10 (chart from before montreal game)

Yeah, I think of those articles that pop up now and then of college professors saying kids don't know how to read anymore, but I feel like tiktok and youtube usually get the brunt of the blame in those

I've never heard of this, I learned phonics (Texas, late 90s). I'd be really interested to see a breakdown of users for different social networks or a breakdown for how people get their news. I'd think text-based networks like blue sky or written news sources have more phonics learners

During the original run I stopped watching in the middle of season 5 because it felt like Leslie and friends won whatever the conflict of the week was too easily, but recently I rewatched seasons 2 and 3 and the too easy wins are apparent even then

The "problem" with Parks and Rec, imo, is it presented a world where Leslie was almost always able to reach a compromise with Ron or flat out convince him she was right with very little effort and things haven't worked that way in the real world
