Honestly this isn't bad. Leafs fans will say Marner should be higher and wonder how in the world Bjorkstrand is ahead of him.

Apparently Bjorkstrand has some wildly good underlying numbers.

He does. He was really good offensively and played Selke level defense

Please share more of Fauxcenter’s work guys!

BTW, I don’t get how everyone keeps sleeping on Taylor Hall. From 2015-2019, he consistently ranked in the 95th-99th percentile in xGF/60, CF/60 while 60-70th percentile in xGA and CA.

He should be top 10 behind Ovechkin, Kane, Kucherov, Panarin, Marchand, Pastrnak, Stamkos & Stone!

I think Guentzel, Landeskog and Marner should be higher. Move Pacioretty Ehlers down.

And this is EXACTLY why analytics aren’t 100% accurate. Thank you for proving my point. Bjorkstand in the top 20? Nylander over marner? Gimme a break
