Speculation: 2024-2025 General Lightning Discussion II: now accepting backup goaltenders

I get to see a fair amount of Rantanen out here. Guy is a big, solid, stud. That line would be puck murder. Wonder what he would cost..?

In Mitch Marner ballpark, I’d say

Saw this on Reddit:

Gdafo​

This is also referred to as srs by some sites albeit they don't do it for offense and defense. It takes a teams standard ga and gf and adjusts them for opponent difficulty(scoring 3 goals vs nj or dallas is a lot more impressive than 3 vs the penguins). You have gaafo(goals against adjusted for opponent) and gfafo(goals for adjusted for opponent).

Deviation​

I've used this stat before. It basically compares basic stats for offensive or defensive production like shooting %, shots against, pk%, etc and relates them to league average for offense and defense.

xgf/ga adjusted​

This is a slightly flawed stat, it uses moneypucks xgf/ga model and adjusts that for a teams pdo, aka shooting and save %. Obviously the issue is if a team takes more higher or low danger shots, that have a less or mote likely chance to go in, it should hurt or boost their xgf/ga.
