that chart should be relative #s.

they both have their usefuleness and weaknesses tho.
a relative chart punishes guys on good teams and rewards guys on bad teams.

raw does the opposite. but the scale with raw is misleading.
Were Klingberg and Benoit two of the worst dmen in the league in xG impact last year? Yes. That much worse than every other dman? Likely not. He had to increase the size of the chart to fit Klingberg in there.

3 of the Leafs top 7 d consist of players from Chicago and Anaheim last year. That's hilarious.
With that said we all knew they were gonna get a league min gudpro to be the #7. Tree bitch hinted as much. Whether it was this guy or some other plug, it's all the same. At least he's league min.

This seems to be their plan every year to improve our D. Get the pluggiest plugs who ever plugged off of the worst bluelines in the league. Fucking viola, defensive juggernaut mode engaged.

Just to add to this.. Benoit and Klingberg clearly have chemistry so maybe that was a factor. They played almost 300 minutes together and had a sparkling 35% xgf%. They were outscored 18-11. Not bad!Ducks xgf rel
1. Shattenkirk +4.0 --> BOS 1 x $1.05
2. Fowler +2.5
3. Beaulieu -1.1 -----> CAR PTO
4. White -1.6
5. Kulikov -1.8 ------> FLA 1 x $1.00
6. Klingberg -4.0 --> TOR 1 x $4.05
7. Benoit -4.0 ------> TOR 1 x $0.78
hopefully there's at least some usage explanation....let me look....yeah there is a little bit at least

That's fucking terrifying on multiple levels. Benoit should see the ice after a minimum of 2 metric injuries (3.5 imperial injuries) and not a moment sooner.

I don't know if a useful method to encourage a Klingberg bounce back would be to put him back with the guy he had the worst stretch of his career with.

Honestly, people go gaga over D on shitty teams, so maybe some will like this

Yeah that was mostly a joke on my end. But hey, I bet they perform more than fine behind a really good team in a sheltered 3rd pair role.
And yes, I expect this guy to play more often than we'd hope for.

If he hits though Keefe will get a boner and play him too much

and fwiw, I have as little patience for Treliving this season as I had for Dubas last year. We're at the point with this group where we don't have time to fuck around. We're already past the point of hoping for a Rapehawks or Kings golden generation type quasi dynasty and we're on to hoping for a Tampa Bay style mini dynasty as best case scenario with a "puck off the crossbar saving our dicks" Capitals one and done as our floor (hopefully....). We just don't have many seasons left to burn with incompetent roster building.

Do we even have room for this guy given he's a lefty?
