It’s what… almost halfway through the season? And wow. Just wow. Look at all the scoring! It’s insane! 7 goals? To quote Kevin Pates, “CRAZY.” (emphasis mine.)

Just how wacky and wild is this scoring? FIRST OF ALL, in all of last year, tDogs scored 74 goals. This year through 16 games, tDogs have scored 51. That means they are 18.1 goals ahead of last year’s pace. SWEET. Last year’s total power play goals? 18. This year? 24. Yeah, I did a freaking double take at that number.

Let’s look at how some of the guys are faring individually.
(Formatting is LYgoals+LYassist/LY points, TYgoals+TYassists/TY points, point differential [+ or –], points per game differential [+ or –]. You know I love to make these stats posts all pretty and colorful! If this is hard for you to understand, well, I’m sorry, but that’s not my problem.)
