Which NHL players were the most impactful to their team during the 2021-22 season?
Analytics show that some surprising players were the best player on their team in terms of Relative Expected Goals For Percentage (REL xGF%).
Leading the league is none other than Boston Bruins captain Patrice Bergeron, who is arguably the best two-way player that has ever played in the NHL. In the top-ten is also players like Auston Matthews, Connor McDavid and Brad Marchand, but a bit of a surprise at number three with Jesse Puljujarvi of the Edmonton Oilers.
For some of the players in the top ten, it definitely proves that not only goals, assists and points is what shows how good they are
