JMMR (and anyone else who might be interested): You should check out my web site. It uses the NHL.com shift charts to keep track of the lines used by the Habs for each game and for the season as a whole. It is updated automatically after each game, as soon as the score is listed as being a final score on NHL.com (usually about 5-10 minutes after the game ends). http://www.cs.unb.ca/~mwf/habs Hope you find this useful.

I just have print-outs of the scoresheets from the 20 games this year. I thought it was an interesting question that lazy26 asked, so I quickly flipped through the scoresheets to check it out.

Nope, the soonest anyone has scored after a Koivu penalty has expired is 1:04 after he was out of the box. And once Ottawa scored during the second of two penalties that overlapped. Koivu's was the first of the two, but the Habs killed off the Koivu penalty 1:17 before the Ottawa goal. Wow, I have no life! :hlogo:

Only 3 PP goals for the opponents on 10 Koivu penalties, but you're right, it does seem like it has happened more than that! (Gionta's second goal last night, plus two by Satan on October 22.)

If you're interested in what lines are being used in each game, you can check out my web site below. The information is updated about 5-10 minutes after the end of each game. Hope you find this useful. http://www.cs.unb.ca/~mwf/habs

In case anyone is interested, here is some info on the ice time logged by the various lines and defensive pairings tonight: http://www.cs.unb.ca/~mwf/habs/icetime03.html Info for the season as a whole: http://www.cs.unb.ca/~mwf/habs

Thanks for the welcome, shortcat1. Actually, I've been reading the forum (without registering) for quite a while, so I'm familiar with the craziness!

Hi, I thought there might be some people here who are interested in this. My apologies if you've already seen this in another Habs forum. I have a web site that uses NHL.com's shift charts to keep track of approximately how much time each of our forward lines and defensive pairings plays together. These stats are kept for individual games and for the season as a whole. You can also see things like each player's most common linemates, the best and worst lines/pairings in terms of +/-, goals scored and goals against, and some other info as well. It's not a great-looking site by any stretch, but hopefully some of you will find it informative. I don't update the numbers during the course of a game, but they are updated automatically once each game's score shows up as being a final score on NHL.com -- usually within 10 minutes of the end of the game.
