Lesieur's S70 Performance Update: Installment 5 (Through 50 games)

[KC15 340]

Another 12 game have been played since the last udpate on Guy Lesieur’s S70 perfomance and with 50 games played to this point, we are on the back half of the season and projected season totals are starting to have some real predictive power. So, let’s dig in to analysis of the last 12 games and Lesieur’s year to date perfomance.

 

Goals

 

Guy really picked up the goal scoring pace over these past 12 games. He notched a nice total of 6 goals for a goal every two games pace. If he could have performed at that pace all year, he’d notch 36 goals on the season – and incredible total for a 3^rd year player (including the 1 year in the juniors).

 

As it is, Lesieur has 17 goals on the season, which is 5 more than all of S69 and equates to a pace of 24-25 goals on the year. Really not bad for a second year VHL man.

 

Assists

 

Same is true on the assist side. Guy notched 5 assists for the same total of 17 as he has for goals. This means he is on pace to score about 49-50 points on the season. Again, in his second year, Lesieur will take it. Sure, he wants to eventually challenge for the goal scoring lead in the VHL – but not necessarily in his second year.

 

Shots and Shot Percentage

 

Guy notched 145 shots in all of S69. He eclipsed that total by game 38 and with 195 shots on goal for the year he is on pace for 280-281 for the year. But his goal scoring is not only based on volumn. Lesieur has also picked up this shot percentage over the past 12 games. It now stands at 8.72% - higher than the 8.28% of S69 and the highest this season since his torrid pace through the first 6 games.

 

All I can say is “Allez Guy!”
