Stats:
| John McCarthy | GP | Goals | Assists | Points | Sh% | CF% | CF% rel | PDO | Pen+/- | TOI/60 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Season w/ SJS | 21 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0.0% | 49.8% | -4.0% | 91.1 | 0 | 11.5 min |
PDO is save% + sh%, pen+/- is (penalties drawn – penalties taken), and to understand Corsi, corsi rel, corsi for % read this article. CF% and CF% rel are taken when the game is 5v5 close (within one or 2 in first period, tied in third).
John McCarthy has been in-and-out of the Sharks lineup all year. Every once in a while he is assigned to the Worcester Sharks in the AHL and he never stays up in the big leagues for very long.
That being said, Mike Brown has played less games in a Sharks uniform than McCarthy, has less ice time than McCarthy, and has scored more goals and more assists. Ouch.
McCarthy’s corsi numbers aren’t all that bad though, just .2% under 50% and 4% under 0 for his relative percentage. For a fourth line forward, we can’t expect him to post corsi numbers that are significantly above 50. However, McCarthy’s PDO is insanely low which means he will probably get his 1st goal of the year sometime this season.
Grade: C-
