New #classymove just dropped
The #classymove project: Vigneault season 3 (15/16)
A cataclysmic showing here from AV, in no small part due to almost never starting Dom Moore against his 8 former teams
Only 7 of 39 regular season chances taken with a Classy Move % (players started / maximum number of players possible) of 14%
The #classymove project: Vigneault season 4 (16/17)
Perhaps his final season was a classy outlier because here AV had 28 opportunities in the regular season but only grasped it 8 times
His Classy Move % (players started / maximum number of players possible) was way back down at 22.8%
The #classymove project: Vigneault season 5 (17/18)
A more seasoned lineup (pre-Letter v1.0 at least) brought more opportunities (32), taken up 18 times
His Classy Move % (players started / maximum number of players possible) was a sterling 45.2%, highest we've seen so far by a long way
The #classymove project: Quinn Season 1 (18/19)
DQ had a classy move opportunity in only 26 games, taking it in 7
His Classy Move % (players started / maximum number of players possible) was 25%
The #classymove project: Quinn Season 2 (19/20)
Still slim pickings with a mostly homegrown roster
DQ had a classy move opportunity in 27 of 70 regular season games and seized it in 9 of those games
His Classy Move % (players started / maximum number of players possible) was 26.5%
The #classymove project: Quinn Season 3 (20/21)
The strictly divisional schedule played havoc here, with Johnson, Strome and Rooney the only classy move-eligible players all season
The #classymove project: Gallant Season 1 (21/22)
Turk had a classy move opportunity in 45 of 82 regular season games and seized it in 12 of those games
His Classy Move % (players started / maximum number of players possible) was 25%
The #classymove project: Gallant Season 2 (22/23)
Turk had a classy move opportunity in only 39 of 82 regular season games and seized it in 14 of those games
His Classy Move % (players started / maximum number of players possible) was 27.8% - the highest we've seen so far
The #classymove project: Laviolette Season 1 (23/24)
Lavi had a classy move opportunity in 56 of 82 regular season games and seized it in 14 of those games
His Classy Move % (players started / maximum number of players possible) was way down at 21.4% - a sorry state of affairs
Following the analysis of Mike Sullivan's #classymove performance so far as Rangers coach, documented here, lets look at the same for the similarly disastrous 24/25 season under the surely more classy Peter Laviolette

A brief thread follows on the all-important matter of Mike Sullivan's #classymove performance so far as Rangers coach
My draft analysis (don’t need to wait for it to finish):
- Carolina crushed it (took the top player on my board every time)
- Dubas invented trading down for the 10th straight year
- Team(s) with multiple first rounders did well
- #classymove by the 17 teams who took a son of a former player/exec
Classy move by The Athletic to formally document Ovechkin’s classy move #classymove
Not sure I’m ready for the reaction to the ultimate non #classymove of Fleury not being allowed to start in Pittsburgh
#classymove shoutout from Sam there
#CLASSYMOVE BY COLIN BLACKWELL OUT OF LAWRENCE MASSACHUSETTS AND THE HARVARD CRIMSON HOCKEY PROGRAM KENNY
Sam was thisclose to classifying Quinn starting Barron as a #classymove
[After Travis Boyd gets claimed]
Another #classymove by Dubas giving a player a chance to play regularly elsewhere
Reckon if I did a #classymove watch on verified accounts commenting on the inauguration it’d be comparable only to Shane Doan’s eventual Hall of Fame ceremony
Olczyk-approved #classymove by Gauthier
Sheldon Keefe is going to have to up his #classymove game
Need a verified account from a media member to go on record calling Alex Steen classless to make this this the most enjoyable response yet to a #classymove
Potential #classymove options for Quenneville’s return to Chicago:
1. Tribute video and ovation
2. Wave in response to tribute video and ovation
3. Crotch grab in response to tribute video and ovation
4. Puts himself in starting lineup
