              • none of our large Blackhawks-supporting contingent here is blaming an NHL-wide officiating conspiracy.
                Ratio of Canucks to Shark penalties was 25:10. Sharks were +15 net in the series. Largest differential in any playoff series ever.

                Ratio of Hawk to Detroit penalties:

                5:5 Game 1
                5:3 Game 2 in favor of Detroit
                7:5 Game 3 in favor of Detroit
                5:5 Game 4.

                Over four games, the ratio was 22:18. Detroit has had a +4 advantage, about a free goal.
                Over four games, the ratio was 25:10. For the Sharks. Big difference. Averages out to a free goal EVERY GAME.

                Game 5 was

                6:5 in favour of Detroit.

                Game 6 was

                6:5 in favour of Chicago.

                Over a six game series:

                33:29 in favour of Detroit. Chicago is averaging 5.5 penalties a game. Canucks average was 6. Not a statistical significant distinction over such a small sample. If we extrapolated the Canuck ratio over 6 games, that would mean that Chicago would have 36:15, for a differential of twenty-one penalties.

                33:29 is very different from 36:15, is it not?

                  Ben, you've finally convinced me: Vancouver commits far too many penalties.

                  • You know what is statistically significant?

                    Being swept in four games. That's pretty statistically significant.

                      While different, what do you expect it to prove except for the fact that the Canuck's style of play leads to more penalties vs SJ's style of play.

                      And you can whine all you want. But as snoopy says...

                        • Yea, iffy at best. But we'll take it. It's nice to catch a break.

                              • it makes up for the goal off of Andrew Shaw that was called off for interference... when Howard was never touched and made the initial save
