Yeah Hamilton is definitely good for sure, he’s going to be big for the Devils.
I just have a hard time with the stats ppl saying the Devils are going to be a fringe playoff team next year and in the same breath saying the Rangers are going to be worse next year than last year.
It’s the common problem with the advanced stats ppl. So many of these analytics are fantastic tools for analyzing the game and learning more. But they don’t tell the whole story and they’re not absolutes. Some of the stats ppl fall into the trap of weighing them to heavily. It’s like politics, both sides think they’re 100% right but the truth lies in the middle.
Im skeptical of this as well.
He's good, but he isn't bell cow of a defense good. Going from a pretty structured and strong group in Carolina to NJ isn't going to help matters either.
He'll be a big boost on their PP for sure.
