Genoway's 137.1 km, Larsen's 88,8% passing accuracy. Stats from smart pucks
KHL.ru unveils records hit in the first two months of the regular season according to the data gathered by microchips and smart pucks.
From Sep. 1 through Nov. 4, the new system gathered data from 302 out of 744 regular-season games. All the games played under the attentive eye of the new system, which allows recording detailed stats and information about the players in real-time.
This time, we present each club's best defenseman and forward in six categories: distance and time with the puck, total distance run, average and top speed, and passing accuracy.
Tkachyov: a leader in playing the puck
SKA's Vladimir Tkachyov is leading the way regarding the puck control stats - he leads the League with 54 minutes and 34 seconds spent with the disk. His closest pursuer, Chey Genoway, trails by 4 minutes and 31 seconds. Both players also compete in the "distance with the puck" category, where Tkachoyv's advantage is just at 180 meters - he amassed 18,527 meters so far. However, Genoway leads the League in total distance with a whopping 137,1 km.
