1 - Tom Wilson’s penalty minute per game rate so far this season, with just seven minor penalties through 14 games. Carried out over a full season, that would drop him below 100 PIM for the first time in his career (40+ minutes shy of his all-time low, which was last year’s 128, and around 50 minutes shy of his full-season low of 133 back in 2016-17).

Unsurprisingly given the dip in total minutes, his average penalties taken per game have gone down as well, at .50 on the dot - just slightly reduced from last season’s .
