Now just how bad are they? Statistically speaking (because this year's D is the same as last years w/ addition of Zanon);
Last Season Statistics: (Zanon's numbers in brackets)
Blocked Shots - 596 (136)
Hits - 716 (116)
Takeaways - 158 (11)
Giveaways - 211 (13)
Shots - 591 (41)
Goals - 21 (3)
Goals Against Team Ranking - 11th
Comparative: Ranked #1 by HFers NYR:
Blocked Shots - 774
Hits - 801
Takeaways - 162
Giveaways - 212
Shots - 553
Goals - 30
Goals Against Team Ranking - 3rd
Now I know statistics don't tell the full story, but statistically, the Avalanche don't seem that much worse than the #1 ranked team.
I am not saying the Avalanche have great D, cause we don't, but I just want to make myself feel better about it.
What do you guys think?
