Jamie:Last summer I took a look at the Power Play scirong rates of many NHL players and I will say that there is much more variation from season-to-season then in a player's Power Play productin rate(PP) copared to his even strength (ES) scirong rate. My hunch is that factors such as quality of team mates, hot streaks (i.e. confidence or lack of thereof), and just plain old luck play a larger factor in PP production than ES production.When you thik about it this makes sense. Player X receives 50 minutes of PP TOI in two seasons in one season the PP unit gets two fluky deflection goals and they don't get those in the following year. Because there are fewer PP minutes the absence of those two fluky goals shows up a significant decline in Player X's PP production rate when really it was just a function of randomness.What am I trying to say here. While I love using the production statitics in the long run ES production is much more reliable of a way to construct your roster--you have to factor in that the PP production is just not going to remain from season-to-season (or month-to-month) for that matter.
