This is a HORRIBLE overpay. You give up our starting goalie, our 3rd best defender, our 2 best prospects and a 1st for a middle 6 winger? Get outta here.

3rd best defender...? One of Slavin Hamilton or Pesce doesn't exist...? (Also Rees and debatably Fensore and Honka are better than Suzuki, and very likely better than Bokk)

I like that team.

too much for Rakell. Bokk + a first + Reimer gets it done.

Jake Gardiner?

Mrazek is the starter in real life but on this roster Lehner is there. If James Reimer is your starter you're in for a bad time. Just ask Toronto. So what is your ranking of the Canes blueliners because I don't have Gardiner in the top 4 let alone 3. 2 best prospects???? bruh... Rakell has one of the best contracts in the league it's not an huge overpay in the slightest.

Gardiner had a better year than Pesce

Carolina were a top 10 teams in the leasgue with Reimer at the helm.

Gardiner had a better analytical year than Pesce

There was a 6 assist difference between the two and one is an "offensive" defender the other plays a shut down role. Take off your homer goggles.

Deal

Gardiner's xGF was among the best in the NHL. Not being a homer, just using analytics lol. Try turning your ignorance off

You are being a homer and you’re using analytics wrong. Expected GF is a flawed stat. Look at his disparity between both xGF% and PDO. One is actual output and the other is a projection.

PDO is luck buddy. It's a combination of Sv% against and shooting percentage. It's nothing analytical. xGF is not a flawed stat, especially ince they fixed the weight of GAR dependance, so no I'm not being a homer, you just don't understand analytics to the degree you think you do and your ignorance is showing through

Must be truly unlucky to be last in the league in blueliner PDO. And acquiring Skjei to play over him 5v5 and Vatanen taking his powerplay minutes is a coincidence right? Hamilton is the true PP QB.

PDO is a measure of luck genius! You just proved my point

Don’t bother. In that guy’s head he believes Gardiner is actually good. Everyone else knows differently.

Pure delusion



Yeah, extremely biased to a #5D for some reason

You clearly have no idea what PDO is.

I know what PDO is you can't make out that this is a career trend for him.

Learn to not be so biased.

Learn what PDO is buddy. Learn what is it, what it represents, and try not to be so arrogant next time kiddo

Damn I guess we should let everyone in the world know that Caniac2000 says PDO is useless, time to retire that metric guys we had a good run

Nope, I just know what it's meant to represent. You should have a look at it's calculations and what it's meant to show

I know exactly what PDO represents I'm not the one pretending it's a bad metric. Cringe.

I'm not saying it's a bad metic LOL. I;m saying you don't know what it is, because you are using it in the wrong context. Cringe
