RetG

Returning Goals

The three fundamental aspects of a team�s ultimate success are goal scoring, defense, and goaltending. The percentages of returning goal scoring, returning defense, and returning minutes by goaltenders measure the amount of experience lost to graduation, defection to the pros, and any other losses of eligibility.

RetG, the percentage of goals scored last season by returning players divided by the production of all players, is a strictly offensive indicator:
