Well shit that's not good re: Heinola! For the player or the team...
yup it's ridiculous.Apples gets shit on a lot here but he outscored Nino and Lowry last season.
He usually plays against the other team's top left winger and is pretty good at killing penalties as well.
Also, he only makes 2.2m a year.
It really is a bit of hard luck compounding isn’t it. I am just catching up and saw the news about Ville. I feel terrible for the kid.
Give you the injuries. Got equal value back for Mcgroarty and Barlow is still a teenager. Don't get the hard luck regarding them.
For years the Jets went without much of anything coming from their 2nd round picks. Now hopefully we can produce 3 solid players in Salomonsson, Chibrikov and Frei so maybe it all evens out.I don't know man, continuous injury issues with Ville, Lucius, McGroarty turning out to be a lemon and having to move him, Barlow not lighting the world on fire. Jets seem to be having some hard luck with their 1st rounders, if it wasn't for Lambert it wouldn't look great.
Yeah one of these things fine on its own but all of the stacked on top of each other is tough.
We can say we got "equal value" but everyone knows that had McG had wanted to sign there is no way Chevy would have made that trade. That is in the past now so I don't wanna belabor it but it definitely wasn't ideal or the Jets 1st choice.
What was their xGF%?
Scott Arniel interview six months from now…
I also bet that there was zero chance Yager was available either, outside of a situation like this. He was the Pens top prospectYeah one of these things fine on its own but all of the stacked on top of each other is tough.

53.33. Which seems low considering they outshot their oppenents by 14 shots and outscored them 4-1.What was their xGF%?

I wouldn't mind seeing those guys, because to me the top 6 only has 2 players who can really dig out pucks, in a battle in the corners type of game, Scheif and Vilardi.
The flip side is that Perfetti-Namestnikov-Vilardi were outshot and outscored as a 2nd line, in a smaller sample.
Samberg and Pionk had a 58% xGF, which probably makes them the second pairing.
Stanley and Miller was the lowest rated pairing though, so we'll see how Arniel mitigates that.
Top prospect doesn't necessarily mean better than another team's prospect. I think it is safe to say that if a Yager for Rutger trade was proposed here with Rutger willing to resign in April both this board and Chevy turn it down without giving it a second thought.I also bet that there was zero chance Yager was available either, outside of a situation like this.

I like statistics. I started young following stats. The name of the game is still outscoring your opponent. Expectations should start there.WOW! We got @voyageur on the xGoals train... what is next Sip being a kind and gentle poster towards Jets players?
What if Lambert steps and flourishes in the top 6 while Perfetti continues holds out into the year
I think this captures the psychological aspect on fandom pretty well haha. Just the way it is. 100% true.Top prospect doesn't necessarily mean better than another team's prospect.

Who knows. I don't think anyone had him unsigned by this point either. Yet here we are. I don't anticipate him missing games, but it's happened here before. there also may be a ramp up period from missing time.I can't see Perfetti holding out for too long, doesn't seem like his personality. Also there will be pressure on Chevy to get it resolved quickly, the Perfetti camp has played it really well with the media and the fans and have them on their side unlike other negotiations with other players in the past. Personally I am okay overpaying Cole by 150-250k if that's what it takes. He lost his bonus due to bizarre decisions by the coach so it balances out.
I think that acquiring a natural centre prospect for a player from a position of excess would have been tempting for ChevyTop prospect doesn't necessarily mean better than another team's prospect.

I still think it is possible for Stanley to become a better penalty killer than Dillon, because of the reach and size. I'm waiting to see how Chynoweth affects his defensive game.
Starting without Ville probably puts a wrinkle into the Jets PP. I would suspect that he had a good chance of running the 2nd PP, and now that goes back to Pionk, and probably changes the look a little. Ville's ability to make passes into players wheelhouse, combined with Lambert's poise from the top of the circles, had me optimistic about PP improvement, before the drop of the puck. Might have to wait it out a bit longer.
A tall order more like it.Well voy'... I admire your optimism...
With Stanley... it's a "process"... a long process it seems...

No, I proved that there are other factors that go into decisions than spreadsheets
