With large sample, it could be interesting to look at the standard deviation and define what is good, great and elite.
But those stats need to be correlated to even strength goals differential. For sake of understanding the point, suppose an elite team scores an average of 6 even strength goals per game and has 20% PP (1 goal per 10 minutes of PP time). This would mean their power play is meaningless and isn't more effective than even strength.

Coming back to this now at roughly the 1/3 point of the season ... Rimouski is still operating at a combined Special Teams stat of 121 (37.4% on PP), but they sit 7th overall in the Q. Just ahead of them in 6th overall is Charlottetown with a combined Special Teams number of only 88.2.
The Top two teams in the standings are ... RN at 109.8 and Moncton at 106.1.
I'm surprised at Charlottetown's numbers ... 15.0% PP and 73.2% PK. They have put on a surge of late ... 8-2 in last 10. I find they are a difficult team to play against ... hard working. Perhaps it is because on PK they have to take a passive approach and on PP it is more about moving the puck quickly than moving your feet, and that doesn't suit their strength. That would suggest that Charlottetown is better at 5 on 5 where they get their forecheck working and battle hard along the boards. Just spit-balling.

Our special teams have been very bad this year... especially the PK... there really is no excuse for our low PK number and I fully expect it to improve over the course of the year The PP is far too staionary... has been forever.... i've never felt our PP was a consistent threat even tho a couple of times we were high up in the standings... i don't expect it to get alot better really but i'll take a strong 5 on 5 club over a team that has to rely on special teams for success anyday

We must have a pile of head to head matchups coming up soon.
