This issue was brought up in in the comments of Thursday's Caps Clips (1/7/10). The boss man of the Rink suggested a fan post be dedicated to the subject. The numbers below represent the league leaders in terms of percentage of their team's power play played.
1. Ilya Kovalchuk - 86%
2. Alex Ovechkin - 84%
3. Mike Green - 83%
4. Sergei Gonchar - 82%
5. Mark Streit - 81%
6. Sidney Crosby - 80%
7. Martin St. Louis - 80%
8. Evgeni Malkin - 79%
9. Drew Doughty - 75%
10. Tobias Enstrom - 74%
Note: Tyler Ennis is not included on the list due to the fact he's played only one game this season.
Background on the numbers - The numbers below came from using Individual Player PP TOI data from NHL.com & Team PP TOI data Behindthenet.ca. The percentage numbers were rounded. I didn't use game log data for each individual player, so the actual numbers for all but two players (Doughty & Streit) may be slightly different.
