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.
