RedWingDevil Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 There is some mind-boggling detail about the plus/minus rating for players when it comes to goals and assists made and when the opposing team gets inflicted by the scoring goal. Normally, if you had a hat trick and you were on the ice for all 3 goals (And it should be very evident), you should have a +3 rating, right? For instance, I'm watching Rangers vs Flyers right now and Ryan Callahan had scored his 4th goal of the game, yet his rating is merely +2! Unless I was completely asleep, the Flyers haven't scored any goals as of right now. Can anyone clarify this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthurray Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 when you are on a man advantage, you do not get a +1 for scoring a goal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mav Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 being on the ice when a goal is scored is a plus. being on the ice when a goal is scored against is a minus and also taking a penalty too is a minus i think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oilers442 Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 I'm not sure if taking a penalty results in a minus or not, but I do know this: You get a plus if you are on the ice when your team scores in either a 5 on 5 or shorthanded penalty kill situation. You get a minus if you are on the ice when you team is scored against in a 5 on 5 or a powerplay. If you team is scored on while killing a penalty, no minus is given to your players on the ice...

The Russian Rocket Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 Taking a penalty does not give you a minus wtf? What Oilers said, plus scoring on PP does not give a +. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smozoma Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 Yeah, for Callahan, he must have scored 2 PPGs, which don't give pluses. A couple cases not covered here: if you're on the PP and get a penalty shot and score, you don't get a plus. If you're on the PK and get a penalty shot and score, you get a plus. I think it's just the guy who scored who gets the plus, not the guys on the ice when the penalty shot was awarded. I don't think there are any minuses awarded for a penalty shot goal.
