How to Use This Calculator
  1. Enter Shots on Goal For and Shots on Goal Against - attempts that reached the goaltender.
  2. Enter Blocked Shots For and Against - attempts blocked by opposing or your own skaters.
  3. Enter Missed Shots For and Against - attempts that missed the net entirely.
  4. Review Corsi For, Corsi Against, and Corsi % (all shot attempts on goal, blocked, and missed combined).
  5. Review Fenwick For, Against, and % (unblocked shot attempts only) alongside the Corsi figures.
  6. Compare Corsi % and Fenwick % to 50% - above 50% indicates positive puck possession.

What each result means

Corsi For (CF)
Total shot attempts for: shots on goal + blocked + missed.
Corsi Against (CA)
Total shot attempts against: shots on goal + blocked + missed.
Corsi %
CF / (CF + CA). Above 50% indicates positive puck possession. Elite teams are 53%+.
Fenwick For (FF)

Fenwick Against (FA)
Unblocked shot attempts against.
Fenwick %
FF / (FF + FA). Similar to Corsi but excludes blocked shots, which some analysts consider more predictive.
