There’s been a huge jump in shots and attempts per 60 minutes from Graf out of the Olympic break, and the Ducks have also allowed the eighth-most shots per game and attempts per 60 at five-on-five during the same stretch. Graf recorded just 4.21 shots and 8.68 attempts per 60 through his first 41 games of the season, and he’s up to rock-solid 8.87 and 14.42 marks over his past 17.
Carlsson has recorded three or more shots in 11 of 18 games out of the Olympic break for 52 total on 97 attempts. He’s also pacing the team in Corsi For percentage at five-on-five while skating in a top offensive role that includes averaging 3:51 of power-play time per night. There are extra shooting opportunities available for the Ducks with Cutter Gauthier (upper body) out of the lineup, too.
