Analyzing Hockey

This article by Mike Smith (ex-Gm) was really interesting (if a little too much like an advertisement for this services).

But here was the money quote;

"There is one player, who shall remain nameless, who has never been above the bottom third in scoring when the game is on the line and his scoring rate decreases as the game situations become tougher - and he has never made less than $5 million. No, it’s not Alex Ovechkin, nor Teemu Selanne nor Sidney Crosby."

Wow. My gut instinct is that he is talking about Joe Thornton or Jason Spezza, but it makes you wonder...
