January Penalties Drawn
Here are the January penalties drawn that I promised to post. Holik was your leader with a strong 18 minutes and he has now taken the team lead ahead of Slater by just one minute. Vigier had a fantastic month drawing 12 minutes in limited ice time (and with limited footspeed I might add). After a great December Kovalchuk wnt back to drawing almost no power play minutes despite being one of the fastest players on the club.
And you defensemen.
While Holik leads the team in drawing penalties, he also takes a bunch and as you can see below he is only slightly positive on the season. Kozlov and Hossa are your leaders. Virtually tied headning into Feb.
Not a whole lot of difference between the defensemen. I'm surprised Havelid isn't more minus considering the massive amount of minutes he plays.

If I may my dear Falconer, here are the net differential per 20 minutes of ice time:
Forwards
Sim 0.50
Kozlov 0.47
Vigier 0.45
Hossa 0.43
Slater 0.30
Rucchin 0.28
Metropolit 0.25
Boulton 0.23
Larsen 0.19
Holik 0.12
Krog 0.00
Kovalchuk -0.09
Kapanen -0.20
Mellanby -0.34
Mellanby and Kapanen are really horrible, not a good way for the captain to lead by example... Sim constant hustling really seems to pay off.
Defensemen
de Vries -0.24
Havelid -0.26
Vishnevski -0.27
Hnidy -0.50
McCarthy -0.62
Sutton -0.80
Exelby -0.80
Coburn -0.83
Sutton, no comment. Exelby is at least playing physical and I'd like to think his stats are improving after a bad start. Coburn is probably still young and thus makes too many mistakes.

I can excuse Mellanby becaue of his lack of speed. Anyone who hooks the Captain is just lazy.
I think Kovalchuk's numbers are pretty amazing considering how "dynamic" he is supposed to be he sure doesn't cause the opposition to take very penalties.
