A few years back, I wrote a monthly feature that looked at the top three
Penguins in some of the more important statistical categories.
While time doesn’t permit me to bring back this feature on a regular
basis, I hope to break it out from time-to-time. It’s your job to
interpret and analyze the results. I hope you enjoy. |
