Sharks Gameday: Putting Shooter McGavin To Shame

Six games into the season and the Sharks are first in shots for per game (38.8) and first in shots against per game (25.3). I don't think I need to tell you how excellent that is to see, but in case some of you Walter Matthau grumpy old men types have a case of the bad news bears today, let me reiterate.

This is a good thing.

However, with all of the shot clock domination, and a 3-3-0 record to boot, I thought it would be a good idea to break down the shot totals by game situation. As MC79 Hockey and Arctic Ice Hockey have shown, teams that are leading tend to shoot the puck less while teams that are trailing tend to shoot the puck more. From a qualitative standpoint this makes sense-- the trailing team is going to activate their D, pinch up the wall aggressively, and take more chances with the puck, whereas the leading team is going to be more content to chip the puck out and try to keep their shifts shorter.

What we have here is a data dump of every Sharks game thus far this season broken down into separate categories-- shots for and shots against when tied, trailing, and leading. All of these totals are at even strength.

So what is this showing us? A couple of things. The Sharks are outshooting teams in every game situation this year, whether the game be tied, or the Sharks are ahead/behind in the game. Boston is the only team that has outshot the Sharks at even strength this year. When you're looking at building blocks that lead to sustained success over the course of a season, even strength shot and goal differential is something that always turns out to be extremely important. So what the Sharks have accomplished thus far is good, even if their record doesn't reflect it.

Star-divide

I didn't include the power play numbers above because the table (which is already kind of difficult to read) would have gotten out of hand, but those numbers are even more daunting. When the game is tied San Jose has 9 power play shots to their opponents 7. When the Sharks are leading they have 16 power play shots to their opponents 15.

But when the Sharks are trailing it's a bloodbath. San Jose pumped 32 shots on goal via the man advantage versus a mere 6 for their opponents. Coupled with the even strength numbers we see above, San Jose is a +57 in the shot category at even strength and special teams when they are trailing in games. If I'm an opposing coach, that makes me really reflect on what I'm trying to do against the Sharks if I get the lead-- sure I can hope my goaltender stands on his head and gets me the win, but sitting back on a lead against this type of team is going to turn out poorly more often than not with the amount of shots I'm giving up.

At any rate, here is the basic jist of it-- San Jose's league leading shot totals are most definitely due to the fact that they have been trailing for extended periods this season. I don't think there's any way around that. But the fact that they have outshot teams when the game is tied, and have put a lot of shots on the board at even strength, indicates that they should be one of the higher shooting teams this season.

Star-divide

Nashville is always a tough two points for the Sharks, even if they usually end up in the win column more often than not. You can never say enough good things about Barry Trotz and how he is always able to drag every last drop of talent from his roster every single year, and this year's Predators team won't be any different. They're a little banged up at forward, with Martin Erat on the shelf with an upper body injury and Mike Fisher only just being cleared to play, but should still bring enough of a forecheck to give San Jose some issues.

Biggest key tonight for San Jose is their start (again). The Sharks did a much better job in getting on the board early against Boston, but that first period was still one where there was too many shots headed towards the net-- without Niemi turning in a standout performance, that period could have gotten ugly.

One thing Nashville likes to do is spread out their forwards on the rush and push back the defensemen of opposing teams. The Preds are quick, and every once in awhile they'll send a guy all the way up past the red line on the break out to keep the Sharks honest. There were quite a few odd man rushes during the game on Saturday, which means this is especially important.

According to David Pollak of Working The Corners, Torrey Mitchell is questionable for tonight's game. The question of Braun or Demers (and subsequently White or Vandermeer) will be answered before game time. Niemi should be in net once again for the Sharks.

Prediction: Sharks win 3-2. Goals by Pavelski, Burns, and Handzus.

I'm all for high shot totals

I’m even one of those guys that yells SHOOT at my tv when they’re on the power play. However, I think a large proportion of the shots the Sharks take are low percentage perimeter shots, or shots with no one in front. Randy and Drew have been harping on it all year, but the Sharks need to get bodies in front. I’m happy that they’re shooting a lot, but id like to see some better shot selection instead of an itchy trigger finger. I’d like to see quantity and quality.

Shots are good...

But so are bodies screening the goaltender. For some reason not a whole lot of our players have the Tomas Holmstrom syndrome… as much as we loathe TH, gotta admit, his annoying presence near the crease worked quite often.

Let’s just get two points and make it 3 for 3 on the road trip. A win here gives great momentum going into the Joe in Detroit. Sharks win 2-0. Niemi gets his first shut out… goals by McGinn and Boyle.

According to DP

Mitchell probably won’t play tonight (which means the third/fourth lines stay the same) and it’s too early to tell whether or not Braun-Vandermeer or Demers-White gets the call.

by Timorous Me on Oct 25, 2011 1:24 PM PDT up reply actions  

They may try Demers w/ Braun if injuries hit hard but the problem is that they play the same side – it’s not easy to switch sides as a d-man and it takes quite a while for a player to get comfortable, it doesn’t usually work out all that well either.

by milanahalek on Oct 25, 2011 1:38 PM PDT up reply actions  

I would like to see either Braun or Demers asked to kind of learn the other side better (like next offseason)—the way I see it, that might be the only way we can get both of these guys in the lineup on a full-time basis.

And by next season I’m expecting they’ll both be deserving of that role.

Thanks for the numbers

Any chance we could see these stats revisited periodically? I know the numbers and the data collection can get unwieldy, but it’s nice to see the trends.

I’d also be curious to see if we’re getting more shots from the blue line as opposed to previous seasons. With Burns in the mix, I’d expect to see that number go up.

And to the point about shot selection, yes, more traffic! More movement off the puck! Less shooting for the chest!

I’m still getting that pop-up, but otherwise have not seen other pop-ups. I’m probably not making any sense, I’m a little tech-challenged.

As long as FTF is NOT infected, then I’ll just deal with those threat warnings….!

Someone will overpay for the other. Overypayment is relative though. If you get them to come to your team, whatever price you pay is the right price, and it’ll probably be for more money and more years that Nashville can afford.
