I'll use Jack Johnson as my example. He has 24 pts this year. 14 of those are on the PP in which he averages 4 mins a game on. He has 10 even strength pts. Andy Greene and Adam Larsson have 11 even strength pts each.

Our defensemen probably produce about the same at even strength as a lot of other teams.

Also Foster has 11 PP pts which is only 3 less than JJ and he plays almost a min less per game on the PP.

This is a good point. Kovy is taking the points those defencemen would usually get from playing the PP point.

but overall, NJ has been solid defensively for several weeks now.

Yet they continue to blow leads like there's no tomorrow. Something needs to be done about that.

We have been much better in not blowing leads as of late, but yea we can't get back into the habit again
