Offensive-zone Scoring-plays Per-60 Relative to Replacement

By Kicks @Chrisboucher73
This post will communicate the number of successful offensive-zone scoring plays each player produced per-minute played. It will compare each player's total per-60 with an average player playing the same position.
Through 4 years of tracking every puck-possession events from every Montreal Canadiens game, I have attempted to find a link between specific plays I track, and scoring-chances. Events with a relatively-direct impact on scoring-chances include; offensive-zone passes off of the rush, offensive-zone east/west passes, offensive-zone passes to the slot, offensive-zone loose-puck recoveries (off of dumps, broken plays, and rebounds), shots, and deflections. The more players produced within these metrics, the more scoring-chances they tended to produce.
The expected goal and shot values of the events included here can be found here, while a list of all the events tracked within my system can be found here.
