Would argue Montreal C is worse than toronto CHe also eats tough matchups and has saved 34 44 and 16 from the worst job in hockey

How did you manage to massage this to omit Bergeron, Hertl, & Pettersson
He adjusts 2nd assists when calculating gsva.
I mean, does he really?

Gsva is more than points.
I'm aware, but Kerfoot has never produced strong analytics away from the line that he's recently been demoted from. McCann produces solid analytics regardless of who he plays with. McCann is also doing it at C this year, not on JT & Willy's wing.
What I'm saying is that Jared McCann is doing Jared McCann things and Kerfoot is benefitting from career high OISH, and stronger than usual xG numbers due to who he's playing with. That the projection of what value Kerfoot is going to bring the rest of the way is highly unlikely to turn out accurate.
His model is sophisticated enough to see that.
We'll see then. Should play out the rest of the way.
