<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NHLfan10506</b></div><div>Ah, yes, cherry pick the injury-riddled down year.

Now do 2021-22 and 2022-23</div></div>

for 22-23, he was glued to hamilton all year. who on his own has shown he's a juggeernaut.

now for 21-22, he was elite with Severson, Hamilton, and Subban. I was wrong. you were right. i'll admit that.

I'll even admit, looking at some of the metrics, he does look like he's been a pretty elite defender with the correct pairing in new jersey. but why would the caps want a guy who is coming of an injury that has so obviously hampered his ability to be even a half-decent player. and also keep in mind we watched this guy be a traffic cone for years. he got danced around so much it was like watching him merengue. 1 on 1, guy just would sh1t himself with flatter feet than your mother's chest. that's why she couldn't breastfeed you. which is why you prob have the opinion you do of Siegs. without the teet of your mother. but as far as who is more valuable right now...i'd rather have the younger, more well-rounded, tougher, better skater in Fehervary. Don't try to regift us the garbage we tried to throw out.

He is also a bit of a hothead. About a week after Ridley Greig slapshot fiasco, Nico Hischier slid the puck into an empty net…in probably the most sporting fashion he could. It was a nothing play. Hischier is an adult, pure class. Brady went nuts and tried to fight him (and pretty much everyone on the ice). Maybe he was showing off for Uncle Fitzy, but it’s not Devils style. It was a little much…might be overselling his brand a bit.</div></div>

Exactly. But I will disagree that he wants to fights. He likes scrums, having the linesmen come into the scrum. Actually one on one fighting not so much.
Funny Leafs Reilly got five game suspension for high sticking a player after the game was over, but Tkachuk nothing. Crazy the Leafs went 5-0 with Reilly suspended including wins in Colorado and Vegas.

Puckpedia predicts that would cost 47th
Sound of hockey predicts 62nd

Actual cost: 45th

Countless more examples <a href="https://www.capfriendly.com/armchair-gm/team/5116728">Examples of puckpedia accuracy</a></div></div>

Interesting. Kudos on putting in the work <a href="/users/NHLfan10506" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@NHLfan10506</a>! Not sure how I missed that thread. It seems the Sound of Hockey and The Athletic use a lot more than just historical trade data to assign value, a sort of "overpayment vs actual value" scale. But if overpayment is what it takes to "get your guy", then so be it. There are roster, contract, and reserve limits to consider, as well. All of which CHI is currently approaching and aren't just going to go away. Not that they are a huge concern, but that just means that we can afford to start throwing more precise darts at the dart board rather than throwing a larger quantity of them. When has 'throwing a fist full of darts' ever really achieved anything, aside from being funny, anyway.
