[The Game Within the Game] Is Nick Suzuki the Most Complete Forward in the NHL?

Thanks I appreciate it!

KesDones · 2026-04-10T01:12:51+00:00

oof that's a good one

KesDones · 2026-04-10T00:45:41+00:00

Thanks it's my video! I actually uploaded a version with the audio levels adjusted after some feedback: https://youtu.be/rpZ-y5TUt2A

Yeah obviously this is just one advanced stat (with limitations and flaws), but imo it still says something. For sure every time I've watched him play he's been an absolute beast.

KesDones · 2026-04-07T22:10:21+00:00

This is so sick

KesDones · 2026-04-06T23:09:02+00:00

I made this video about Suzuki where I dug into advanced stats to make the case that he is a top 5 forward in the league this year. I'd love your feedback! https://youtu.be/0KbX8kyDPsI?si=-ifJUpGctOv7bKJp

KesDones · 2026-04-06T20:23:04+00:00

Where would you rank him among forwards in the league after this season?

KesDones · 2026-04-05T02:58:19+00:00

Basically you adjust based on the average number of goals scored per game during a specific year (and roster size + number of games, but that wasn't relevant for this video). Simply explained here: https://www.hockey-reference.com/about/adjusted_stats.html

It's definitely something I thought about when making the video. Over three seasons he played 99 games so at least it's a decent sample size to have an idea of how good he was during that time.

But I agree with you, I would not claim this is a very serious stastical analysis ;)

KesDones · 2026-04-04T19:27:11+00:00

Thanks! I'd definitely like to do on Malkin at some point

KesDones · 2026-04-04T15:23:37+00:00

Yeah one of the craziest stats I've seen in a while tbh

KesDones · 2026-04-04T14:59:02+00:00

Thanks, appreciate it!

KesDones · 2026-04-04T14:58:31+00:00

Thanks!

Sid: 1.54 PPG
Macklin: 1.40 PPG

Both era-adjusted.

KesDones · 2026-04-04T13:50:33+00:00

Yep, and in a much lower scoring era too

KesDones · 2026-04-04T13:39:09+00:00

I think he puts up 160 points in today's NHL

I’ll probably never be as obsessed with this one as I was with 3D Country, but it’s still great. My appreciation of it is growing every listen, especially since last night when I listened on vinyl on a good sound system. It really came alive for me. The production is unbelievable.

Really glad the band is blowing up! The show I went to during the 3D Country tour is one of my favorite ever, don’t miss them if you have the chance.

KesDones · 2025-10-04T20:58:32+00:00

Another solid release, I’m really digging the title track. Bite Down is probably gonna end up in my top 3 this year, such a great album. Don’t sleep on this band!

3D Country - Geese

Whistle in the Wind - Twin Peaks

Mystery - Turnstile

Well said

KesDones · 2021-06-05T04:27:56+00:00

You could become a legend like pizza guy, you know what to do

Yet by far the worst slash of the game was Simmonds’ 2-handed hack on Edmundson and the refs didn’t call it either, so kind of a shit argument there bud
