With seven seasons in this project, a defensemen has led in assists five times. Doesn’t look like a typical scoring leader board. However, when the season was done, it was littered with defensemen: Player Based on the season I last played (2019-20), and adjusting for the assist numbers would be a little higher because a smaller league produces more scoring (25% more goals), pro-rating the assist leaders would produce the following: Player One project I play every year is a 10-game, 12-team draft league.


I had never really noticed that until I started looking closer at some of the statistics in my own projects. I once saw a stray comment on an APBA Hockey post that defensemen get too many assists.
