Agreed!!  I sort of find it a little funny when people taught a GK making there let’s make something crazy up like 500 saves in a season (15-20 saves per game) for a team that looses a lot by a wide margin…. Great you made a ton of saves but your team isn’t any good bc on a good team you should probably average maybe 5-10 saves a game maybe….  I’d rather taught shutouts (clean sheets) not amount of saves.

I'd be inclined to include Goals scored with very little or minimal amount of assists…. Were you just a ball hog that took shots and potentially didn’t play as a good teammate by setting up anyone else to score a goal.  I realize there might be an exception here and there but I think you get my point.

Look at MJ as an example…. I think I heard he led the team in scoring and was a top of the team in assists as well….

I think that I agree with everything that you said. I'd much rather a team have the scoring and assists spread out among several team members. What caused me to purpose this thread was looking at the Frederick Douglass stats and I quickly realized that they were not in any statistical category except the following three:

Team Shutouts with 14 in twenty-one games which earned them 3rd in the state behind two other teams with 14 shutouts but in eighteen games.

Team Defense at 6th allowing 0.7 points per game.

Team Scoring Margin at 27th with a margin of 2.7 goals.
