Not playing around anymore.
Of 16. Let's not make a 50% chance more than the coin flip it is.Only top-8 in the playoffs, true.

..which is to say that he'd be an average #1 centre on any team in the league, except he's our #2.
Yes, PP production counts too, but 5v5 play is far, far more important.
and this is fair, I get why someone would assess him like that.
I just can't ride with the idea that you're paying someone premium money based on their power play production.
PP production is generally extremely noisey year to year (JT scored 18 PP goals last season, a career high by 5 goals and more than he scored in the 2 previous seasons combined) and puts the value of a player almost solely in the hands of the zebras making calls (and at the right times)

I’m accepting I’m the one missing it, here…but i am still slightly confused on Kerfoot.…and in a ideal world I’d love to spend that $3.5m on someone else….but like…
23 goals, 83pts over last two years, 164gp.
55.08 GF% (venue score adjusted)
52.79 xGF%
54.05 SCF%
54.01 HDCF%
…and as far as I can tell, looks to have been a decent enough contributor on the PK? (plenty of the above > Mitch or Kaampf, but it less TOI).
Are those all “meh” type numbers for $3.5m third liners? (Legit asking).
Would we have easily gotten better on the FA market for that?….(I assuming yes?)…and if so, who are some of the obvious guys we missed out on grabbing with that money for instance.
true, but even 5v5 p/60 for Cs
27. Beniers 2.21 (1.60p1)
28. Zibanejad 2.19 (1.81p1)
29. Schenn 2.13 (1.45p1)
30. Lindholm 2.11 (1.51p1)
31. Bergeron 2.11 (1.50p1)
32. Tavares 2.09 (1.53p1)
33. Ek 2.08 (1.45p1)
34. Couture 2.07 (1.55p1)
35. Kadri 2.05 (1.50p1)
36. Thomas 2.05 (1.52p1)
37. Suzuki 2.03 (1.44p1)
These are all very good players.
16 of 32 make it.
And you expect me to trust your numbers?
The most interesting part of that Athletic article is that Vegas has no bad contracts. Florida has one. Colorado has one.
Its better to overpay top end players like JT then any other type of player, but its even better to not overpay anyone.
And 16 teams make the playoffs. Not 8. 8 make the playoffs in one conference of 16 teams.

Yes rainman. 10 minutes to Wapner, I know.There are 32 teams in the league.
hotWhat do people here think of Elias Lindholm as a 2C...
With JT and marner as wingers?
