Also, anyone can be a NST dork and nitpick xG stats to determine players, but any hockey fan who ISN'T will actually watch the games. You just overrate your players.

Ahh, the watch the games argument. The sign someone no longer has a defense for their opinions. Plus, even if you watch the games, Slavin breaks up chances like no one else in the league. Hughes has been a pylon his entire career. Good day, and thanks for proving you were wrong. Made my day a little brighter.

Using Dom's model that paints Nick Suzuki as a bad deal... LOL, stop now.

I just showed percentiles derived from EH, remember when you used to use RAPM charts as your only form of argument? What happened?
Hughes and Josi have been fine analytically.

Hughes has been a pylon? Right. Let me know when Slavin scores more than 42 points in his career.

You just can't handle when somebody dares question your sacred Canes players that are somehow so much better than everyone else. Biggest homer on this website.

This years models pluck the numbers right from EH. You remember EH right? The RAPM charts? The ones you used to plop in EVERY thread when somebody disagreed with you?

I suggest you read up on Dom's sources. His model uses EH's xGAR, the RAPM charts from EH are the same as the NST numbers, they're just put into a graph, lmao. Dom's model remains a joke, but that doesn't fit your narrative so you're trying to shove a square peg in a round hole.

Clearly doesn't, EH drives its numbers from NST. NST has no correlation with Dom's joke of a model. But you claim the homer card because your wittle ego can't handle how wrong you are. No one, either analytical or realistically, is taking Josi or Hughes over Slavin. Stop your crying

Biggest projection I've seen on this site to date.

The cards still use defensive and offensive xG, along on-ice and individual analytics piled into percentiles. Almost every public analytic model does the exact same thing. And my point still stands with any of the players mentioned above.

You do this all the time. Rag on about how your players are better than everyone elses, then cherry pick some NST stats about how the said Canes player is better on a Tuesday during a full moon.

Nobody on this website is laughing with you, they are laughing at you.

LMAO.

Any hockey fan with that doesn't have the IQ of a peanut is taking Hughes or Josi over Slavin.

It's ironic how you'll bring up ego but you throw a tempter tantrum any time somebody tells you KK isn't a 2C.

I also remember 3 separate times you ignored me when I proved you wrong too. You have the biggest ego on this site that you spend countless hours on because you have no friends.

Yeah, sure bro, he definitely sucks defensively.

Rasmus dahlin

For 2 years he claimed Hamilton was thr best defensmen in the NHL. Then Hamilton left Carolina and nothing

Skjei probably comes in at around 7mil if he hits the UFA market. He might be willing to take a discount for the Canes at around the 6mil figure, but with how good he has been, particularly the last 2 seasons, I find it hard seeing him getting less than 7 on the open market.
