Was an awesome thread, props to op
McLeod as “wasted potential” is like getting Capone on tax evasion. Sure, but, uuuuhhh
Thanks for doing this, OP. It’s been fun. Now, on to the season!
Great job on this, thank you for all the hard work in putting it together. This was a great exercise, and great result! Thank you!!!
Great offseason content, OP. I looked forward to these threads. Some good discussion.
Definitely a few in the « bad » categories on this list that can be attributed to recency bias. Jon Gillies was terrible, but he wasn’t even on the team for a full season. I wasn’t even born yet when the 80’s Devils played so I can’t visually say how bad they were, but going by stats alone, the goalie horror that the 80’s Devils had to put up with would make even Gillies look passable. Granted, NHL goalies in the 80’s let in A LOT more goals than what what they average today, but even then, Ron Low had a -17.5 Goals Saved Above Average in 1983-84 and Chico Resch (as much I hate to say it) had a -23.4 GSAA in 1984-85. Most of the bad categories is more visual confirmation based rather than stat based, but I can definitely bet that if most of us were around to see those 80’s teams, a lot of those players would definitely fit in most of the bad categories.
