Derrick Pouliot and his AHL Offensive Production

The American Hockey League does not track individual player ice time. Don't ask me why, but they don't. This is problematic in terms of measuring players production levels when valued at Points/60 and similar metrics. CHLStats, an analytics based website that publishes advanced statistics for the OHL, WHL, and QMJHL is also now publishing AHL statistics. Eric Tulsky, formerly of Broad Street Hockey, now working for the Carolina Hurricanes, has done research to make up for this lack of ice time measure.

Anyways, Derrick Pouliot has been killing it in the AHL using the Estimated Points Per 60 TOI Metric.
