Coming up shorthanded - 11-17-09

Jordan Staal's shorthanded goal in Monday's win against the Ducks was the ninth of his career. Since he entered the league in the 2006-07 season, Staal is one of the best at producing goals while trying to kill penalties.

The leaders among shorthanded goals since the start of 2006-07:

Player, Teams Short-handed
Goals
Mike Richards, Flyers 16
Rick Nash, Blue Jackets 12
Daniel Alfredsson, Senators 11
Patrick Sharp, Blackhawks 10
Jeff Carter, Flyers 9
Jordan Staal, Penguins 9
Martin St. Louis, Lightning 9
Rene Bourque, Blackhawks/Flames 8
Kris Draper, Red Wings 8
Radek Dvorak, Blues/Panthers 8
Richard Park, Islanders 8
Maxime Talbot, Penguins 8

Yes!  I was totally sitting on my couch last night thinking, "Staal seems to do this a lot...I wonder how he stacks with the rest of the league."

Max up there too!

I love EN.  There, I said it.

Surprised to see Mad Max on the list.  I never really thought of him as a shorthanded specialist.

Unfortunately, 7 of the 9 came during his rookie year.
