Dont think that can be used as hard evidence because only 3 of the 13 games were against eventual playoff teams.. but it is interesting... you also have to consider things like when DD went down in 21-22 I believe PP and team scoring overall went up noticeably. My point is it may be misleading to use those stats to evaluate a player's overall effect on the team. I personally am questioning Fiala these days based on eye test only. Last year I thought he was very effective at generating offense and not being quite as boneheaded as he is this year... dont have stats for that, just my impression.DId a quick check and the Kings were 7-4-2 without Fiala.
