The first graph represents the number of NHL Stanley Cup Playoff games Detroit Red Wings' goalie Jimmy Howard has played in in the past five seasons. As of right now the Red Wings have the longest active playoff streak in the big four North American sports with their streak at 23 straight years.
The second graph shows the current goal leaders for the Red Wings. Gustav Nyquist leads the team with eight while several players including Pavel Datsyuk and Justin Abdelkader come in with five each. Nyquist is a younger player but came into his own last season when many of the veterans had injury issues. He produced prolifically last year and is expected to do the same this season.
The third graph shows the percentage of points the top five point producers account for. Captain Henrik Zetterberg leads the team in points. He makes up for about 27% of the team's goal and assists. Each goal or assist is considered one point. Henrik through 17 games played has racked up 17 points. Followed by Niklas Kronwall with 19% of the points. While Datsyuk, Johan Franzen, and Abdelkader all come in with 17% of the points. Zetterberg is usually at the top of this list both scoring goals but mostly assisting on many of them.
