No, the correct answer is using all of the above.

The best talent evaluators assess everything they have access to in order to make an evaluation of a player.

Not necessarily. Not every chance a player is on for/against goes in the net.

Maybe if each team played with an empty net that would make sense.

I agree with Sbroads stance that not all 40-50 point players are created equal. Some benefit from quality of teammate, some just ride a high shooting percentage. There is also defensive impacts and offensive chances that don’t go in the net.

You can save a million here or there by replacing players that go in high shooting benders and identifying players that are not being maximized in depth roles on other teams.

However, I do expect my $9M LW to average a point a game and bring more to my team then driving play with no results.

they're useful for determining how much you have the puck. They're not particularly good at showing if what you're doing with it is at all meaningful.

Good tool, probably overvalued and overused though.

Well not surprising, Rangers should take on $15 dollars to match Parros's jersey number.

I also don’t think ALL 40-50point players are created equal

However,
when i pressed him for a list of 30point players who were better than 50point players....
***he claimed there were A LOT***
He then had trouble coming up with names
And 2 of the 4 he eventually did name,
are playing at a 50point + pace

GENERALLY,
the best players score the most points

Of course there are exceptions,
especially the further down the list u go
