2020-21 Detroit Red Wings Media Guide

LITTLE CAESARS ARENA As a key anchor of the world-class sports and entertainment district known as The District Detroit, Little Caesars Arena is one of the most innovative, intimate and exciting venues in the world. Led by the Ilitch organization, The District Detroit unites eight world-class theaters and three professional sports venues in one vibrant, walkable destination for people to live, work and play in an exciting urban environment. Home to the Detroit Red Wings, Pistons, Tigers and Lions, The District Detroit represents the greatest density of professional sports teams in one downtown core in the country. And in the heart of the action, Little Caesars Arena has hosted more than 6.5 million guests since its September 2017 opening. The most bustling area of the arena is the Via, a streetscape-inspired indoor concourse with res- taurants and historical memorabilia surrounding the arena bowl with an authentic urban feel. Guests are afforded a vast array of dining options inside Little Caesars Arena, including seven restaurants and seven bars. Outside the arena is vibrant and exciting as well. Guests in the Chevrolet Plaza regularly enjoy music and entertainment in a unique atmosphere with a massive video wall for viewing parties, outdoor concerts, tailgating and more. Just north of the Chevrolet Plaza is the Budweiser Biergarten, featuring a spacious patio and lawn area for various public and private events, along with a glass- enclosed, four-season pavilion bar – featuring a retractable roof and walls to accommodate all types of weather.

HOW TO FIGURE ** NOTE: No individual skater/goaltender statistics apply for the shootout Assist: An assist is awarded to the player or players (maximum of two) who touched the puck prior to the goal, provided no defender plays or possesses the puck in between. Game Played: A player receives credit for playing in a game if: i) he steps on the ice during time played or; ii) serves any penalty. Game-Winning Goal: After the final score has been determined, the goal which leaves the winning Club one goal ahead of its opponent is the game-winning goal (example: if Team A beats Team B 8-3, the player scoring the fourth goal for Team A receives credit for the game-winning goal). Goal: A goal is awarded to the last player on the scoring Club to touch the puck prior to the puck enter- ing the net. Goals-Against Average: Multiply goals allowed (GA) by 60 and divide by minutes played (MINS). Goaltender: A goaltender receives a “W” for a win in regulation, overtime or shootout; an “L” for a loss in regulation; or an “OT” for a loss in overtime or shootout. Penalty-Killing Pct.: Subtract total number of power-play goals allowed from total number of shorthanded situations to get total number of power-plays killed. Divide the total number of power- plays killed by the total number of shorthanded situations. Plus-Minus: A player receives a “plus” if he is on the ice when his Club scores an even-strength or shorthand goal. He receives a “minus” if he is on the ice for an even-strength or shorthand goal scored by the opposing Club. The difference in these numbers is considered the player’s plus-minus statistic. Power-Play Goal: A goal scored by a Club while it has a manpower advantage due to an opponent’s penalty. Following are some examples of what is and is not considered a power-play goal: • if a Club has an advantage on a minor penalty starting at 2:02 of the period and it scores at 4:02, the goal is not a power-play goal. • if a Club scores on a delayed penalty, the goal is not a power-play goal. • if a Club has an advantage due to a five-minute major or match penalty, that Club is always credited with having one more advantage than the number of power-play goals it scores during that advan- tage, because the penalty does not expire. A new advantage begins after each power-play goal. For example, if Team A scores three goals during a major penalty, it is credited with four advantages. • if a Club is on a power-play for any length of time, it is considered to have had an advantage. • if a minor penalty is incurred by a Club on a power-play due to a major penalty, a new advantage is given to that Club when its minor penalty expires, provided the opponent’s major penalty is still in effect. Power-Play Percentage: Total number of power-play goals divided by total number of power-play opportunities. Save Percentage: Subtract goals allowed (GA) from shots against (SA) to determine saves. Then divide saves by shots-against. Shooting Percentage: Divide the number of goals scored by the number of shots taken. Shorthand Goal: A goal scored by a Club while it is at a manpower disadvantage. The same cases apply for shorthand as for power-play goals, but in the opposite manner. Shot on Goal: If a player shoots the puck with the intention of scoring and if that shot would have gone in the net had the goaltender not stopped it, the shot is recorded as a “shot on goal”. Shutout: If two goaltenders combine for a shutout, neither receives credit for the shutout. Instead it is recorded as a Club shutout. Tenths of a Second: If a penalty or goal occurs in the last minute, the time is rounded off to the previous second (ex: if a penalty is called with 12.4 seconds left in a period, the time is indicated as 19:47 and not 19:48.) Coaches Record: A coach receives a “W” for a win in regulation, overtime or shootout; an “L” for a loss in regulation; or an “OT” for a loss in overtime or shootout.
