Aho: 2.45 xGA/60

With Romanov on the ice, the isles give up significantly more defensively than with Aho on the ice.


Zone starts:

Over 70% of both Aho and Romanov zone starts are either on the fly or in the offensive zone. Romanov starts in the defensive zone at even strength 10.6% of the time , Aho 7.3% . Not a significant difference.


Defensive zone giveaways:

Romanov: 34

Aho: 13

yes, you read that right. Romanov does get more ice time, but even if you broke it down into per 60 rates, Romanov would still have at least double the defensive zone giveaways per 60.

This season, besides hitting (which has cost the isles because it takes Romanov out of position) there is nothing Romanov does better than Aho.

Offense: Aho
Defense: Aho
Puck Moving: Aho
Puck battle wins: Aho
Shooting: Aho
Passing: Aho

Romanov is still young and could improve, but right now hes a mediocre 3rd pair D at best and Aho is filling the Toews role very well as a good two way puck moving D.
