Mitts is - 11 worst on the team.
Meanwhile Byram.is +9 which leads the Sabres and has had a great November.

Tells us how worthless that stat is.

Nothing quite like starting a pointless player comparison by using +/- as your main argument. An HF classic

Waiting for that Makar and Jacob Middleton swap any day now... His +15 would be such an insane boost to this team.

Can you imagine how dominant this team would be with Jacob Middleton instead of that Barrie-wannabe?

That's a net +20 swing in our favor!! We could have a .515 record after that trade!

As long as empty net goals count on +/-, it is a purely useless stat.

Byram has been very good for a few weeks now though. Is this one of his typical hot streaks that he has? Or has he turned a corner?

It's also useless because it depends on goaltending. A player can give up 20 scoring chances while he's on the ice, another player can give up only one, but if the goalie for the first guy makes all the saves and the other guy is Georgiev, that results in a minus-1.

Certainly that plays a role too. Just naturally when you're playing with an empty net, the odds are much greater of giving up a goal than scoring one. I don't know where Mitts is today, but it has to be -5 or -6 with an emply net.

The fact that you likely typed that with a straight face tells me all I need to know about your talent evaluation skills.

We should've just traded for superstar, generational Barrett Hayton!!!!!

This is league wide not by team
