Over (+) or under (−) what their opponents usually allow, a game, and where that stands among 32 teams, the best first. Lit is the top three or the bottom three. Penalty minutes read against the league’s mean, since nobody allows them.

The Blackhawks' splits

Method

  • Against expected is each game against what the opponent usually gave up in its other games, with half the home edge, averaged. A game against a team with no other game here sits out.
  • Goals are the final score’s: a shootout gives its winner one goal, as the standings count it. Shots are shots on goal.
