These numbers take corsi-events and use them to tell a more indicative story about players' offensive-contributions.
A list of all the metrics I track can be found here
The calculate a player's efficiency above-replacement, we simply subtract the average value for a player who played the same position from that player's own value.
Only even-strength events were used in this calculation.
Thomas Vanek helped produce nearly 7% more scoring-chances per-Corsi-for event that occurred while he was on the ice. Expressed more simply, nearly 7% more of the shots that the Canadiens attempted on the opposition's net while Vanek was on the ice were scoring-chances produced by Vanek himself. Max Pacioretty helped produce 3% more scoring-chances per-corsi events while on the ice, while Dale Weise and Ryan White's high above-replacement values are the likely product of smaller sample sizes.
Alex Galchenyuk actually helped produce 3% fewer scoring-chances per corsi-for event compared to an average Habs winger.
Among defensemen, the trio of PK Subban, Andrei Markov, and Nathan Beaulieu were once again the leaders in an offensive-metric.
