SC - Scoring Chance. Any shot taken from the home plate scoring chance area.
SA - Shot Attempt. SAs branch into these mutually exclusive subsets:
- SOG - Shot on Goal
- MS - Missed Shot
- BS - Blocked Shot
- P - Post
SU - Setup. Awarded to players who pass the puck to a teammate who then takes a shot. SU is like an assist for a Shot Attempt (so naturally we also collect SU2s - the 2nd assist of a shot attempt).
Tr - Transition play. A shot in which the first or second setup pass comes from the defensive or neutral zones.
Cy - Cycle play. Shot attempts in which both the first and second setup passes come from the offensive zone.
Combinations
These acronyms are used in conjunction with one another to describe a play. For example, SC SA is a scoring chance shot attempt. SUSOG is a Setup Shot on Goal (I'm paying special attention to these because SUSOGs are about 50% more likely to go in than SOGs that aren't setup by a pass).You can get as crazy as you like with these - I read a Tr SC SUSOG as a transition scoring chance setup shot on goal.
