Couturier does it all for the Flyers, Perry has a hat trick, Scrivens saves the Oilers and more in Scott Cullen’s Statistically Speaking. HEROES Sean Couturier, C, Philadelphia – Helped the Flyers to a 5-3 win at Pittsburgh, scoring a goal and two assists, matched up for much of the game against Sidney Crosby - who was held without a point, incidentally - and Couturier started most (71.4%) of his even-strength shifts in the defensive zone. Corey Perry, RW, Anaheim – Three goals, in the Ducks’ 4-1 win, was too much for the Sabres to keep up with. Perry had seven shot attempts (6 SOG) in the game and is now tied with Rick Nash for the league goals-scoring lead, with eight. Ben Scrivens, G, Edmonton – stopped 32 of 34 shots, including 13 in the third period, to defeat the Washington Capitals 3-2. In Scrivens’ first three appearances this year, he stopped 56 of 70 shots (.800 SV%); in the next three, he’s saved 82 of 87 shots (.943 SV%). ZEROES Buffalo Sabres – Maybe they should be given credit for breaking their scoreless drought, when C Tyler Ennis found the net with 5:06 remaining in the third period at Anaheim, but one goal in three games is hardly worthy of praise. Through seven games, the Sabres have scored eight goals and are shooting 4.9% as a team. Jordan Eberle, RW, Edmonton – Generated one shot attempt (missed the net) in 19:30 against Washington and was beaten down in possession (7 shot attempts for, 22 against, 24.1%). Craig Adams, RW, Pittsburgh – It isn’t so much that Adams had a zero Corsi Wednesday against Philadelphia, because he played all of 6:13 at even strength, but it’s a continuation of a recent bad run that includes three shot attempts for and 14 against (17.6%) in the past three games. PLUS/MINUS Capitals D John Carlson scored a goal and registered a team-leading seven shot attempts (3 SOG)…Ducks G Fredrik Andersen stopped 22 of 23 shots by the Sabres and has a .951 save percentage in six starts… Brayden Schenn, C, Philadelphia had a strong possession game (13 shot attempts for, 1 against, 92.9%) at Pittsburgh…Penguins C Brandon Sutter was minus-4 despite having a solid possession game (12 shot attempts for, 9 against, 57.1%)…Oilers D Jeff Petry played more than 20 minutes, but did register six giveaways. FIRSTS 29-year-old Flyers C Pierre-Edouard Bellemare scored his first career goal, and put five shots on goal, while playing 15:49 at Pittsburgh. LINEUP NEED TO KNOW Capitals C Jay Beagle got into his first game of the season, played 15:47, and had strong possession stats (19 shot attempts for, 8 against, 70.4%) at Edmonton.
