Garret Hohl @garrethohl.bsky.social · 21/09/2026We're back. Connor Hellebuyck wants out, the #NHLJets have a very different roster, & we’re somehow heading into 2026-27 with a whole bunch of questions. So… who are the Jets now? A look at the analytics, camp lines, & Scott Arniel’s new approach. 🔗: thefivehohl.substack.com/p/the-winnip...thefivehohl.substack.comThe Winnipeg Jets After Connor Hellebuyck: Who Are They Now?A look at Winnipeg’s roster, the Hellebuyck situation, the analytics behind the team, and what Scott Arniel’s new approach could mean for 2026-27. 0101

Garret Hohl @garrethohl.bsky.social · 20/07/2026I dug into HockeyViz, Evolving-Hockey, and All Three Zones to break down what the #NHLJets are actually getting, where each player helps, and where they don't heading into 2026-27. 🔗 open.substack.com/pub/thefiveh... 170
Garret Hohl @garrethohl.bsky.social · 16/07/2026Imagine telling some particular individuals in 2007-15 era MSM (many are good but I’m speaking specifically), that were going to have 3 years in a row of a top-2 Corsi team with a “stats blogger” AGM (and 1 “stats blogger” GM)… 031

Garret Hohl @garrethohl.bsky.social · 06/07/2026Guy on left is paid less and averaged a minute per game than the guy on the right, but it's the guy on the left everyone wants to upgrade. 240

Reposted by Garret Hohlbfj-mb.bsky.social @bfj-mb.bsky.social · 03/07/2026I'm kind of interested in the notion that only teams with really weak or thin goaltending should be interested in Hellebuyck. Is there no merit in getting a better goalie? By analogy, do teams say they don't want a better top C because they already have an okay C? The goalie market is fascinating. 121
Garret Hohl @garrethohl.bsky.social · 01/07/2026Leaving for family stuff. Long story short the biggest wins for #NHLJets are: * not blocking youth * setting up for trades * underrated middle roster pieces (think Perreault) Not filling out roster. Technically, Skinner helps that. 091
Reposted by Garret HohlGameTimeArt @gametimeart.bsky.social · 26/06/2026They are at least keeping the 8th pick which is good.. Probably not moving on anything else though and we'll go another year where 2C is a need for the Jets. (Though, and @garrethohl.bsky.social would confirm.. it might be time to start thinking of 55 as the actual 2C and worry about a 1C) 011

Reposted by Garret HohlMicah McCurdy @hockeyviz.com · 03/06/2026This isn't even his peak. He used to be even stronger, but somehow only a few people saw it for what it was. Jets fans who watched him excel year after year would line up in your mentions to tell you how he wasn't that great. It was/is bizarre to me. 4705

Garret Hohl @garrethohl.bsky.social · 03/05/2026Kinda wild that Carolina is 5-0 in the playoffs right now despite a combined 4 (four!) 5v5 points between Avo, Jarvis, Svech, and Ehlers combined… 1123

Garret Hohl @garrethohl.bsky.social · 17/04/2026Welp... That's all folks. That's 82 games of misery. My life has come back together enough that I'll write up a bit of a post-season on the Jets over at TFH, and also discuss the future of my blog. 0121
Garret Hohl @garrethohl.bsky.social · 15/04/2026Fun stat: only two players in NHL history have averaged the same or less TOI/GP than Ehlers and produced at a higher P/GP rate. Hints: • One is retired • One is currently playing against the Jets (and probably won’t meet the TOI cutoff for much longer) Any guesses? 330
Garret Hohl @garrethohl.bsky.social · 15/04/2026@golferwpg.bsky.social 2-8-1 was a rough end for Bowness there 140
Garret Hohl @garrethohl.bsky.social · 09/04/2026It's been a rough few days. I'm about to have to do something really difficult. Sorry for being cryptic but I'll probably be less so later today. 270
Garret Hohl @garrethohl.bsky.social · 02/04/2026My personal addition to the Staples lore: Staples had just got access to some microstats. I pointed out to him that Russel leading in exit attempts isnt a positive thing since it meant he was in the dzone lots. He said if I saw tracking stats I’d know better (I ran HockeyData at that time). 070
Garret Hohl @garrethohl.bsky.social · 02/04/2026Oh fun. Highest career scoring (P/GP), low TOI (<16.5min/GP) players in history (only goes back to 1997-1998). 180
Garret Hohl @garrethohl.bsky.social · 02/04/2026The other (and worse) site got an Ehlers post, so I thought you should too. 0120
Garret Hohl @garrethohl.bsky.social · 29/03/2026Making wild statements based on small samples (even though history also backs this up, just not to this extreme haha): Putting DeMelo back with Morrissey = good Taking Salomonsson away from Samberg = bad 221

Garret Hohl @garrethohl.bsky.social · 27/03/2026Barron might have just got CTE from some big connections there... 020
Garret Hohl @garrethohl.bsky.social · 27/03/2026I'm just going to point out that's 1 shift this season with 81 and 55 separate and they already score a goal. (please understand this is not serious analysis) 230
Garret Hohl @garrethohl.bsky.social · 27/03/2026Maybe don't attempt another zone entry when you've been on the ice for 1:30 of the power play already? 110
Garret Hohl @garrethohl.bsky.social · 27/03/2026Some bad chances against and a penalty from Toews, all extending from him giving the puck away just second prior. 000
Garret Hohl @garrethohl.bsky.social · 27/03/2026Remember when those ozone full shift changes happened all the time for the Jets (2017-18 and 2014-15). 000
Garret Hohl @garrethohl.bsky.social · 27/03/2026Not to pile on one player all the time lately, but #24 had 3 dzone turnovers in the first shift (and then his partner #2 had one the next shift). 010
Garret Hohl @garrethohl.bsky.social · 25/03/2026I’m not one to use 5v5 goal differential, but did you know 3 of the #NHLJets bottom 4 goal differential pairings were Fleury-X. Fleury-DeMelo have been much better (as DeMelo is better than Schenn, Bryson, or Pionk) but -1.25 goals per 60 is still very much bad. 041
Garret Hohl @garrethohl.bsky.social · 25/03/2026A good way to think about xG: it’s not trying to capture everything. A “perfect” model would boost a shot if the goalie lost their stick, but that’s not the point. xG models the underlying process, not the true probability of that exact moment. 141
Garret Hohl @garrethohl.bsky.social · 25/03/2026#NHLJets RHD rankings in different stats (best to worst) DeMelo (2), Salomonsson (57), Pionk (4), Miller (6), Schenn (5) xG (RAPM): 2, 57, 6, 4, 5 Corsi (RAPM): 57, 2, 4, 6, 5 GAR/60: 2, 57, 4, 5, 6 xGAR/60: 2, 57, 4, 6, 5 sG: 2, 57, 4, 6, 5 020
Garret Hohl @garrethohl.bsky.social · 25/03/2026Sorry let me restructure this: So many #NHLJets fans are oddly happy that DeMelo ($4.9M, who was 50% Corsi and 53% xGoals with Morrissey) is demoted for Pionk ($7M, who is 49% Corsi and 51% xGoals). 120
