Empty-net goals per game

Primitive Stats
  • A pull is a team's first of the third period, made one or two goals behind, with the time left as a median over the season's team-games.
  • A pull must last 5 seconds, and one ended by an opponent's penalty within 3 seconds is a delayed penalty, not a pull.
  • Empty-net goals are both teams' per game played.
