As for the overrated/underrated survey, these kinds of lists are always completely bull. Campbell being top 5 in overrated AND underrated just tells you how “credible” this list is. Also I wouldn’t say Pettersson is overrated considering everyone has been crapping on him and calling him the next Loui Eriksson (no disrespect to the 🐐) Also Hughes should be underrated cause he’s been having a very good year and nobody has been talking about him. Anyways, that’s just my take on that list

These lists are nonsense. Overrated and underrated in what context? Media attention? Do the overrated players not have the JFresh approved blue square of approval?


The terms overrated and underrated are nonsense in general.

Anthony Duclair has 15 goals in 29 games (42 G pace). One of the best contracts in the league

Dallas down 2-Bagel in FLA after 20min...
Stars barely touched the puck.
Just another century to go of Benn-Seguin @ US$20MIL per - oof!
Looks like Klingberg has already traded his butt out of Big-D.

Dallas is probably the most inconsistent team in the league.

I am not talking just about this survey, that is pretty much how I feel towards anything JFresh puts out. imo advanced analytics is for looking through the bargain bin FA not for saying legit top 6 or top 4 players are terrible or overrated


Advanced analytics are pretty good reference for things that can't be measured like defense, quality of competition, etc. Stats don't tell the whole story

For example, last year, if you looked at ONLY the points, you would think Barrie was the best offensive dman. But with advanced analytics, you could see other factors like defense which aren't very noticeable on the stat sheet to see guys like Fox, Makar, etc were better.

Obviously playing with huberdeau helps, but he’s been solid without him too. Bennett is a very good 2C

I made a joke but Oilers fans have actually become intrigued by it

I said imagine Holland re-acquiring Petry for the Oilers blue line come the deadline

Well that idea got popular very quickly lul

It's just a fan survey, it wasn't made by Jfresh and likely doesn't have anything to do with analytics.


I know it's a fan survey, and I know Jfresh didn't personally make the rankings. But they were voted on by people who follow him and it's not a farfetched assumption that his analytical ratings of players have some impact on how these people voted.

It's nonsense because the terms "overrated" and "underrated" need context. Do these people think Marner, Kane and Draisaitl are valued too highly for their ability? Are they paid too much for what they provide? Does hockey media talk about them too much?

I watched for a while...I think the STARS are too progressive really!!?
They have embraced the new-NHL more than others & as we know it's all about "systems and stuff".

Case in Point:
The new way to defend your goal is kinda back to kindergarten-days:
* everybody make a box in the slot
* now swing your sticks back and forth like your sweeping a dirty floor.

Welcome to the new-NHL...
I do not like where this game is headed - glorified pond-hockey.
