Following on from my article on the even-strength scoring chance season summary for individuals and Geoff's articles of player results on the power play and penalty kill, this post will review the...

Throughout the 2011-12 season, we've tracked every scoring chance for and against the Philadelphia Flyers. The data is tracked internally by teams around the NHL, including the Flyers, but is not...

Nobody needs to be told this, but the Flyers didn't generate many chances and the Devils got plenty in their Eastern Conference Semifinal series. While the Flyers spent long stretches of play not...

Flyers vs. Penguins, ECQF Games 1-6 Scoring Chance Summary

The Flyers could learn a thing or two about how to start games from the Penguins. The Pens got chances early and converted them into goals by Crosby and Kennedy, while the Flyers only really...

Many regular readers of BSH know that many here put a lot of stock into the so-called "advanced statistics" -- both as a way to understand what we're watching on the ice night in and night out, and...

It's been a while since I posted the game-by-game scoring chance results (sorry, I'll try get them out soon), I've still been recording the chances for all the games and I thought a chance summary...

In the interest of catching up, the chance data for the Sabres, Devils, Blue Jackets, Lightning, Panthers and Hurricanes games can be found in the BSH archives or the Scoring Chances section...

On a game-by-game basis, scoring chance results provide an insight as to how the team played in that game. For example, a team can play well but lose and the scoring chances can illustrate that if...

Scoring chances through the first two periods were fairly even between these teams, finishing 13-11 at the end of the second and 11-10 at even strength. The third period was complete dominance by...

Ridiculous. Keeping in mind that I only count a scoring chance as a bonafide shot from within a designated area, the Jets at one stage had 1 goal and 0 scoring chances. By the end of the second,...

The Flyers and Leafs both generated 13 scoring chances at even-strength, with no team really dominant at 5v5 at any stage of the game. However, the Flyers special teams were excellent. The...

Despite losing both these games the Flyers outchanced the Capitals 18-9 and the Blues 16-10. Both games were characterised by defensive lapses allowing weak goals by the Flyers and excellent...

The Flyers were absolutely dominant throughout the first period of this game, outchancing the Senators 9-1 and taking a 4-0 lead thanks to the Senators taking multiple penalties where the Flyers...

The final scoring chances for the Canucks vs.Flyers game reflected the even contest between these two teams, with the chance total ending at 17-17. The Flyers managed eight chances in the first...

While it appeared the Flyers controlled most of the play through the first two periods, the Devils actually led in scoring chances 12-9. However, the third period was entirely Flyers as they...

Many of you who were around Broad Street Hockey at the end of last season may remember that I started tracking the Flyers scoring chances, and I will continue to do so this season. For those of you...

Facing elimination, the Flyers could not break down an excellent Boston defense. The final boxscore credited them with 23 shots, but they only generated eight scoring chances, largely due to the...

The Flyers were outchanced by the Bruins 13-19, and 11-15 at even strength. They generated two chances on their two powerplays, and allowed four chances while penalty killing. Chances by period...

The first period was filled with penalties and bad plays by Michael Leighton. Unsurprisingly, the Sabres took advantage of their powerplays to score two goals on four chances. The Flyers didn't...

The first chance didn't come until 13:23 remaining with the Flyers on the powerplay. Jason Pominville would score the only goal of the game three minutes later, but it wasn't for a lack of trying...

Rejoice, the scripts appear to be working again! The Flyers controlled the play for the first ten minutes, with Jeff Carter scoring a powerplay goal early and the JVR-Giroux-Carter line generating...

Given that I haven't been able to publish any of the scoring chance results for the first two playoff games as the script used hasn't been providing the information needed, I decided to look back...
