My answer to this is don't you think the Blues did their homework on this? What Is Goal Line In Hockey? Los Angeles Nach Las Vegas realistically, three pretty good players and we'll contribute Bob The Robber 2 each other a lot. MINNESOTA 11 -- vs. I know my parents and family are very excited too. They all have the challenge of packing in the information of their new team and new teammates. Subscribe to: Posts Atom. VEGAS 15 -- at Los Angeles 17 -- at Los Angeles 19 -- at San Jose 20 -- at San Jose 26 -- vs. I think we've done a really good job of everyone coming in and knowing that it's going to be a shortened camp. A lot of fun.

Shots from the point require redirects and luck to get the puck into the net because of the angle and distance of a shot from that area.

Most of the goals in the NHL are scored from either slot. In the last three seasons, almost half of all the goals in the NHL have been scored from the low slot.

If the puck is placed this close and centered to the goalie, the offensive immediately has an amazing chance to put the puck into the net.

The high slot, while not as goal-heavy as the low slot, still accounted for a quarter of the goals in that same three-year time span.

With the dawn of analytics in professional sports , including hockey, more teams know where and how to shoot the puck in a given situation. Statisticians have realized that the slot produces the best scoring chances, so teams will tell their players to look for shots in that area.

As more teams and organizations become more savvy with advanced stats, look for them to take more shots from this area on the ice.

We still have to keep going. The Blues, in the newly renovated West Division, will play a game schedule in what's the season and play only divisional opponents.

They know what the challenges are, but knowing there won't be the normal-than-usual training camp, just like the setup they had in the Return to Play Plan last season, served as a reminder to get to work on their own, and to it together.

I think as we saw in the bubble the teams that were the most prepared had the most chance with the success rate ultimately.

We feel as a group we've had guys here training, skating, ready for the start of the season. It can't take us games to get into it because it's going to be a spring right to the finish and it's going to be tough playing division games every single night.

We've had guys in here training and skating and competing against one another. I think as a team we took a completely different approach just because we know there was going to be a day training camp leading up to the season.

Through Day 1 here, that was a good-paced practice and we feel ready. Management and the coaching staff have done everything possible to give the players the proper guidance for what's to come.

It was up to them to break the information down and go into camp the way they saw fit, and it's obvious they didn't like how they handled the lead-up to the Return to Play Plan in July.

The ending result spoke for itself, and after being the hunted, the Blues will play the role of hunter again. I give our guys a lot of credit.

We've had a large majority of guys here for the better part of a month skating in different groups and training and being prepared for today. We've done a study on how it looks in the shortened seasons before.

The difference between those shortened seasons and this one is the number of teams we're playing is much less.

We used to play in conference. Now we're playing in just division. The goals for, goals against, how special teams were tighter in those times and I think it's even going to be a smaller variance now.

It was important for our guys to show up ready and they have. That includes newcomers Torey Krug and wingers Mike Hoffman and Kyle Clifford.

Krug and Clifford signed when the free agency period began in October, and Hoffman is in camp on a professional tryout signed a week ago with the likelihood of earning a contract when the regular season begins.

They all have the challenge of packing in the information of their new team and new teammates. The chemistry isn't going to happen overnight.

You can do a little bit after practice, before practice. But realistically, three pretty good players and we'll contribute to each other a lot.

Obviously as time goes on, we'll just get better and better. Krug, who's been in St. Louis since early December and was paired with Colton Parayko on Monday, said it's been a challenge, but one that's worked well.

Now I've got to come in here and learn a few staples of the drills that we're going to be doing all year long and also get integrated into the system.

The chemistry on the ice will come. I want to get to a point where I don't have to think about the systems are to a game.

I could just go out there and play. Just trying to learn and play and obviously communicate frequently and learn every thing. I came in here early specifically, that was by design so I could build some chemistry on the ice with these guys and get used to them and get used to the locker room.

It's a very welcoming group of guys. A lot of fun. I'm in a lot of the same age bracket with these guys. I spoke about how important that was to me before I got here.

We have a lot of things in common and I'm very excited about this group. They've welcomed me with open arms and it's been fun to be on their side of things.

Forward sees opportunity to win Stanley Cup in St. When the Blues signed Mike Hoffman to a professional tryout contract last week with the probability of signing for former Florida Panthers winger to a contract for the upcoming season once the Blues place Alexander Steen back and Vladimir Tarasenko shoulder on long-term injured-reserve, there seemed to be a buzz in the locker room.

We get an amazing player like he is, a guy that can score and put the puck in the back of the net, yeah, I think it's exciting not only for fans but as guys in the room, it gives us more belief that, 'Hey, we're going to give this another great chance.

I think this was the best opportunity and the chance that I have. Louis always had a good club and was kind of one of the teams on my radar coming into UFA.

Anything could happen. There's different possibilities, but this was the one that we thought was the best fit and best opportunity.

Hoffman found a good fit with the Blues, a team that believes it's still in a window of winning now and on a squad that will utilize him in a top-six role.

It gives us combinations, it gives us options to be a deep team and I think he's going to be a good piece for us. Very exciting to see what these guys can do together on the ice and obviously once we do start to work on special teams to build that chemistry, get comfortable where guys want the puck and just build it up and see where this train can take us.

Blues general manager Doug Armstrong has been a Hoffman fan going back a few years, including when the Ottawa Senators were offering up Hoffman in a trade but also took another interest when Hoffman became a UFA once the Panthers' season ended.

Obviously our plans are to get him signed. Then you start selling what you have and we believe the strength of our team is down the middle of the ice whether it's O'Reilly, Schenn, Thomas, [Tyler] Bozak and [Oskar] Sundqvist.

Obviously today Craig [Berube] had Schenn on the wing, but he can always go back in the middle. I think when you're trying to sell a winger to come to your organization, you're trying to sell the ability to play with good players.

Also I think the transition game we have on our backend right now is something that forwards want. I think we had the ability to sell what we have right now for a player like Mike.

Hoffman is coming off a season in which he had 59 points 29 goals, 30 assists with the Panthers in 69 games, of which 21 points 11 goals came on the power play.

Hoffman, 31, skated on his off-wing with Jaden Schwartz and Robert Thomas on the first day of practice. Cancel Save.
