Plus-Plus in the PWHL (03/10/24)
Another look at one of many stats that doesn't matter, but this one is mine and therefore I love it.
We've gotten a bit into March, so I thought it would be a great time to check on the standings for my favorite unimportant statistic: plus-plus (+/+)!
For those not in the know, plus-plus is described in more extensive detail in this article, which features its debut for the season, but the short version is that it looks at which skaters are on the ice when the most goals happen: for or against their team. If you want to see goals in a game and don't care which team is scoring, its best to tune in when these players at the top of the plus-plus standings are on the ice.
