If you believe those analytics maybe we did not upgrade our defense that much.
not sure you all are reading the stats right?
at least zone exists have been upgraded by a ton.
Garrison is not replacing salo stralman is and that is a huge upgrade. I get salo has a good corsi but he wasnt doing well on getting the puck out of the zone especially at the end of the year.
As you can see that is also the weakness of brewer. Garrison is not great at it but is upgrade to brewer right now be it has less attempts or time etc..
So we have barberio and sustr with another year under belt
an aging brewer?
Garrison as a semi upgrade and/or gudas.
Stralman stats are huge and figure he will get better and better carles are really solid too.
So our top 4 is healthier and is our top 6 or even 8.
I would love to see the turnover numbers not the stats percentages and icing numbers myself see how those relate to how often they had that opportunity.
Is like when knew salo needed to go was able to pull his numbers on hitting net on power play blocked shots attempts etc. not just a percentage.
Am not sure like percentage with not all the factors involved all the raw data myself
Is good measurement but if these are problem areas we have to have them worked on
also we are HEAVILY CENTERED meaning most of our guys on offense play center I wonder how that relates to zone exits? Are we better at it than most teams etc..? Since we probably carry and handle the puck better for having so many guys who have that capibility?
