BIG 4 STATISTICAL UPDATES

When referring to the big 4, I am talking about Ilya Kovalchuk, Pavel Datsyuk, Alex Ovechkin, and Evgeni Malkin. They are all playing in the KHL on separate teams. The season started recently and here is an update on how they are doing.

 Ilya Kovalchuk has put up 1 goal and 6 assists in 4 games. Another notable stat for Kovalchuk is his +/-, which is actually a positive 4. In the NHL he struggles with that greatly.

Pavel Datsyuk is not disappointing either. Datsyuk has 2 goals and 4 assists in 5 games. One of his goals was an overtime winner.

Alex Ovechkin's stats are almost identical to Datsyuk's. They both have 2 goals and 4 assists, only Ovechkin has played 6 games. Ovechkin is still firing the shots on net. He averages 6.3 shots per game.

Evgeni Malkin is definitely a firm believer in the saying 'sharing is caring'. Geno recorded 1 goal and 7 assists in his first 8 games. Rocketing 6.1 shots per game is not too shabby also.
