Amend the table for shooting ranges to read:
Advantage > Higher of 4-12 or their conditional range Disadvantage > Higher of N-Range or their conditional range Even Strength > Higher of P-Range or their conditional range
I'm not sure if anyone could have a PP range in excess of 4-12 but if they did, should it go down on a Broken Stick shot. Many players have higher SH ranges than their N range. When they are on the PK should their ranges go down for a Broken Stick shot?
ex. Ryan Nugent-Hopkins is the recipient of a Broken Stick shot while short handed. By the existing chart he would use his 1-10-2 N range instead of his 4-4-1 SH range (the shot was not N-Hard but would have been SH hard)

I think we're spending too much time on a situation that is a pretty minor role in the game. I don't see a reason to change either this or the stoppage created by a missed chance either. It works, it doesn't have to represent every possible outcome that can happen once in a blue moon in the league. As long as the matrix accounts for it, I say leave things as they are.

The reason that the N-Range is used for disadvantage is that while most shots when disadvantaged are breakaways, broken stick shots are not. The N-Range represents the condition of 4on4 created by the 5th advantaged player being stickless. I do not support this proposal as it is disruptive to math used to create the matrix. That makes sense for the SH range and I'm willing to accept that.
If 4-12 is not the maximum for a PP range, is there a reason why that range should go down in this circumstance?
I'm not aware that it's possible for a player to have an N range greater than their PP range so had included that potentiality just in case. If it's not possible, it's not needed.
Odds of a broken stick result are 1 in 162 (1 in 648 for a bench minor and 1 in 648 for a breakaway). Impact on calculating matrix should be easier than say an injury result (since the broken stick has a fixed and defined result and duration).
