STATS OF THE STARS: ALL-TIME STARTING SIX PART 3

Today, we bring you a special version of Stats of the Stars that is aimed at helping you make your decision when voting begins on tomorrow.

This article will compare the statistics of the 16 right wingers that we have selected to be in with a chance of winning the starting slot on the right side of our all-time starting six.

However, you can still send in your own suggestions for other players we have not listed by using #StarsStartingSix.

Firstly, we begin by looking at how many games each winger played for the club and this includes both regular season and playoff matches.

GP

1. John Dolan – 516

   

2. Jeff Hutchins – 233
3. Patric Lochi – 221
4. Paul Berrington – 136
5. Justin Faryna – 118
6. Brent Hughes – 116
7. Mike Wirll – 107
8. Vinny Scarsella – 65
9. Marc-Olivier Mimar – 62
10. Scott Barnes – 61
11. Brock McPherson – 57
12. Cory Morgan – 56
13. Kevin Bruijsten – 53
14. Mikko Inkinen – 52
15. François Bouchard – 47
16. Mark Kolanos – 23

Club legends, Dolan, Hutchins and Lochi are well clear of the rest in this table, due to their many years of service but a player like Kolanos definitely left a lasting impact in such a short space of time.

Next, we ranked the players by their total amount of points they collected with the Stars.

P

1. John Dolan – 483

   

2. Patric Lochi – 276
3. Jeff Hutchins – 139
4. Justin Faryna – 117
5. Paul Berrington – 112
6. Mike Wirll – 111
7. Brent Hughes – 102
8. Vinny Scarsella – 91
9. Mikko Inkinen – 72
10. Cory Morgan – 65
11. Kevin Bruijsten & Scott Barnes – 59
12. Marc-Olivier Mimar – 58
13. François Bouchard – 44
14. Mark Kolanos – 33
15. Brock McPherson – 25

Super-forwards Dolan and Lochi were again runaways thanks to their supreme talent that they displayed over the years but a few EIHL era players, like Faryna, Wirll and Hughes, have broken the 100-point barrier after only two seasons with the club.

The players were then ranked by how many goals each scored for the club.

G

1. John Dolan – 247

   

2. Patric Lochi – 196
3. Justin Faryna – 55
4. Mike Wirll – 50
5. Jeff Hutchins – 43
6. Cory Morgan – 34
7. Paul Berrington – 32
8. Brent Hughes – 31
9. Scott Barnes – 30
10. Mikko Inkinen – 28
11. Vinny Scarsella – 26
12. Kevin Bruijsten – 25
13. Marc-Olivier Mimar – 19
14. François Bouchard – 18
15. Mark Kolanos – 16
16. Brock McPherson – 13

Obviously, things are much the same when it came to goals but some one-season wonders did put up a remarkably high tally, such as Morgan, Barnes, Inkinen,

Next to be compared was each of the forward’s total number of assists in a Stars jersey.

A

1. John Dolan – 236

   

2. Patric Lochi – 129
3. Jeff Hutchins – 96
4. Paul Berrington – 80
5. Brent Hughes – 71
6. Vinny Scarsella – 65
7. Justin Faryna – 62
8. Mike Wirll – 61
9. Mikko Inkinen – 44
10. Marc-Olivier Mimar – 39
11. Kevin Bruijsten – 34
12. Cory Morgan – 31
13. Scott Barnes – 29
14. François Bouchard – 26
15. Mark Kolanos – 17
16. Brock McPherson – 12

Although, it is the same two leading the way, the numbers they have achieved are what makes them the two biggest contenders for this slot in the starting six.

Each player’s total number of penalty minutes was next to be ranked and while some people see more as better, you typically want to spend more time on the ice than in the box.

PIMS

1. Jeff Hutchins – 636

   

2. Justin Faryna – 286
3. Scott Barnes – 242
4. Paul Berrington – 239
5. John Dolan – 226
6. Patric Lochi – 196
7. Brent Hughes – 144
8. Cory Morgan – 112
9. Brock McPherson – 86
10. Mikko Inkinen – 50
11. Mike Wirll – 48
12. François Bouchard & Mark Kolanos – 20
13. Marc-Olivier Mimar – 17
14. Kevin Bruijsten – 14
15. Vinny Scarsella – 4

It is clear to see where some of the enforcers have topped the players who have played the most games, as Faryna and Barnes jump past Dolan, who in his 13-year service averaged 17 penalty minutes per season.

Finally, each player’s points per game totals were compared and this statistic is calculated by taking a player’s total points and dividing that by their total games played.

PPG

1. Mark Kolanos – 1.43

   

2. Vinny Scarsella – 1.40
3. Mikko Inkinen – 1.38
4. Patric Lochi – 1.25
5. Cory Morgan – 1.16
6. Kevin Bruijsten – 1.11
7. Mike Wirll – 1.04
8. Justin Faryna – 0.99
9. Scott Barnes – 0.97
10. François Bouchard, John Dolan & Marc-Olivier Mimar – 0.94
11. Brent Hughes – 0.88
12. Paul Berrington – 0.82
13. Jeff Hutchins – 0.60
14. Brock McPherson – 0.44

This table shows how much quality these club legends had, to be achieving close to or more than a point per game in outstanding but it also shows how much single-season players contributed, such as Scarsella, Inkinen, Bruijsten or even the half-season player, Kolanos.
