Related Topics: Patric Hörnqvist

Patric Hornqvist holds one of the best relative-corsi for percentages on the Penguins, which I'm not saying is because of SIdney Crosby, but...I'm also not not saying that. That being said, Hornqvist has 11 points in 18 playoff games and tallied 51 points in 82 regular season contests. He's just about even between assists and goals and holds an NHL career shooting percentage of 9.4.
