<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caniac2000</b></div><div>He's got an xGF/60 north of 3, that is ELITE territory.</div></div>

Fun story, I decided to go back and fact check this and made several fun observations...

1. The line you're talking about is Bunting/Kotkaniemi/Necas with an xGF/60 of 3.11. Funny thing... That makes it the <strong>50th</strong> best xGF/60. So either we have 50 elite lines in the league or that's not elite territory.

2. Interesting that you didn't bring up the Bunting/Kotkaniemi/Necas lines xGA/60... Which is also 3.11. Which means they break even in expecting scoring. It's also the <strong>29th</strong> worst xGA/60 line in the league. Soooo 50th best in xGF/60 but 29th worst xGA/60 isn't a good thing right?

3. That 3.11 xGA/60 is also Carolina's worst xGA/60 by a country mile. The next worst is Teravainen/Aho/Svechnikov at 2.44 xGA/60.

4. But I decided to take it a step further! Bunting/Kotkaniemi/Necas is 3.11 xGF/60 and 3.11 xGA/60. Bunting/Drury/Necas is 3.12 xGF/60 and <strong>2.09</strong> xGA/60. Necas/Drury/Noesen is <strong>3.47</strong> xGF/60 and <strong>1.62</strong> xGA/60.

<em>Since I know you're a bit slow, that last point means that both Bunting and Necas are better offensively <strong>without</strong> KK on their line, and are EXPONENTIALLY better defensively <strong>without</strong> KK on their line.</em>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caniac2000</b></div><div>Brother, I use stats that come from NHL.com. Don't accuse me of making stuff up if you're too dumb to figure out how to read. Kotkaniemi's starting to get things going again, he couldn't buy a goal for a while, but he's going well and is still worth every penny of that deal. But you know, you spread your fictional narrative because you're clueless.</div></div>

You say you use stats that come from NHL.com ... then you proceed with being wrong about the stats that do come from NHL.com. You are just a liar.

For example. here's what NHL.com says about Kotkaniemi's points in the last 6 games.

How did you come up with the site telling you 4 other than it being a bold faced lie? It was the same for Staal's ice time.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Thetypicalleafsfann</b></div><div>The canes would be lucky if it was only a 3rd to dump Kotkaniemi every team in the leauge views him as a cap dump and one the worst contracts in the leauge. The only reason he a "decent chance creator" is because of the system he plays. Analytics always favor the canes yet results never do</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caniac2000</b></div><div>Cool, then no other team in the league will have him. He's good defensively, a VERY strong chance creator. He's a very strong player that went through a mammoth cold spell. He's not a cap dump and simply watching him reaffirms that. His issue is that he went cold, but he started the season scoring at a PPG rate, which people love to forget about. He's a very strong 3C with 2C upside, he's a good value contract and he's signed long term. Teams that want him will have to pay, not the other way around.</div></div>
That's a lot of koolaid in one post. Even Brind'Amour doesn't think KK is that good - his 5v5 TOI/GP is 11th among Hurricanes forwards! That's 4th line material, for those keeping track at home. And when he's on the ice, the Canes allow more corsi, shots, goals, expected goals, scoring chances and high danger corsi. That's not the hallmark of "good defensively". Oh, and he gets 67% OZS!! That tells me two things: 1) the coaches don't trust him defensively, and 2) the fact that he allows more of everything while rarely starting in the D-zone proves them right. Appalling.
