The 6th Sens Mailbag
Since Tim and I were away from the computer last night recording our inaugural podcast, we have absolutely no idea how the game ended. I still have to edit the podcast, so keep checking back regularly for it. I'm hoping to have it posted within the next 48 hours.
Anyway, now that I'm back in front of a computer for the first time, I began my daily routine by checking the website's email before hitting the mainstream media sources for information. There were a number of new messages but the first one that I saw was one with the subject heading PP to SH Differentials.
So I'm a little bored at work. The below is the PP to SH differentials (power play chances - times shorthanded) for NHL teams after last night's games. Folks have, rightly I'd say, been complaining about the refs so here's some quantitative data. Not perfect data, because if PPs get snuffed out by other penalties it still counts as a full PP chance, whatever, we're -24.

First of all, thanks for the email Isaac and thanks to the other readers who emailed in voicing their absolute disgust with how last night's game unfolded.
That being said, maybe it's better to stay in the dark in regards to the game last night. Instead, I think this could be a good opportunity to try something different here. Rather than reading the mainstream media, I'll allow you readers to post in the comments and give me some semblance for what happened in last night's game.
Have at it in the comments...
