Some hot starts have cooled off, allowing the cream to rise.

Welcome to Better Box Score Metrics, our analytics column focused primarily on semi-pro statistics and discovering new ways to use data to explore ultimate. It is anchored by EDGE, which we can summarize as converting goals, assists, blocks, turnovers, and yards gained into one metric, while accounting for the scoring and turnover environment.
Christophe Tremblay-Joncas had the highest EDGE-ranked performance of the season in helping lead Montreal over Philadelphia to create a pile-up for second place in the Eastern Division. Tremblay-Joncas had no turnovers while producing 462 throwing yards, 293 receiving yards, 7 scores, and a block, for a 6.86 EDGE, passing Scott Heyman’s Week 2 6.66 (Table 1). Just behind Tremblay-Joncas, the Atlanta Austins shared the offensive workload about as evenly as they could, but it was Allan Laviolette who again propelled another Carolina victory with his fourth straight top-10 game.
