i know that the devils picked #1, but why is no one talking about the flyers not taking Nico? i know it was the right pick for the flyers for what they need, but Nico is the better player and nolan looks like jvr-lite.

That clown sure mentions people being obsessed with dopps an awful lot.

Kind of makes you wonder who is really obsessed.

because nobody cares about the flyers and their love for gingers with no souls. the flyers are 3 forwards away from icing the equivalent of AA midget Milton Winterhawks.

since plus minus get brought up a lot
Here is one good explanation as to why its not a great stat and misleading


Woodguy‏ @Woodguy55
Further to the "5v5" +/- vs +/-, don't get hung up on shorties. Its the empty net goals that make it such a bad metric. The worst 6v5 +/- reads like an Allstar team since the best players are on the ice in the offensive situation. From Oct 2015 until today "bottom 20" in 6v5 +/-

Not much relief there... they're in the 20s standings-wise, and .500.

So more or less a reflection of their parent club.


Shocking that a team with godawful prospects wouldn't have a good AHL team, I know.

Excuse you? Francis Perron plays for Belleville. I remember hearing that he was gonna show everyone that he was better than Marner at the Memorial Cup a few years back. Surely he hasn't dropped off that much. Right?

It is. Each plus is way more valuable than a minus though. You're not usually losing much by giving up an empty netter but unless you're down by two, each one of those pluses is worth a point in the standings.

Ceci the next Jack Johnson

https://theathletic.com/1...arrying-or-sinking-teams/

Finally, we see San Jose and Ottawa (amongst The Athletic cities) anyway. To explain what's going on with Ottawa: my system classifies the Cody Ceci pair as the first pair at the moment. Guy Boucher's used that pair as the matchup pair early on, so they're getting called the first pair. Whether that's right or wrong in the abstract doesn't really matter – I'm trying to put together a reasonably fair comparison.

Of course, they're getting caved in from a possession perspective. They're doing a little better by the GF% measure but you can't really make the argument that it's due to defensive wizardry. The Senators are shooting 9.9 per cent with Ceci on the ice at the moment. That almost certainly has nothing to do with him.

The Senators' first pair not being much worse than San Jose's caught my eye. On one pair, you have Cody Ceci, who's trending towards becoming Jack Johnson for a new generation in terms of how predictable it is that he'll get bombed while hockey people love him. (Don't give your kids alliterative names if you want them to be NHL defencemen, folks.) On the other, you have Marc-Edouard Vlasic, a Team Canada stalwart who basically everyone loves. Both pairs are putting up lousy numbers. So is Vlasic getting excuses made for him? Is Ceci actually better than people think?

K. So about -5 a season should be taken into account for this.

I still think +/- is just as good a stat as the fancy stats. Give me a player whose team scores more as opposed to less when he's in the ice any day of the week
