Many times I saw how Kuzy played for himself, instead of just giving Ovi to the free ice. But Backs, on the contrary, took away and gave away, so for the link Ovi Lindholm is what you need


Don't get me wrong, Bergeron is a top 10 center, and IMO Lindholm is around 13th to15th. He is not a flashy player but he is a very reliable guy who will produce more when playing with high end wingers. Couturier before he got hurt was very much like this too[/quote]

You know your comparables my friend! Bergeron, Couturier and in many ways Hertl are the perfect comparisons to Lindholm.

Off ice issues aside, Deangelo is atrocious in his own end. We already have Carlson and Sandin providing offense from the back end, we need steady defensive minded guys back there, i.e. Van Reimsdyk

Check out there relative stats, my man. That's way more telling than face value stats. Strome is btter.

Lindholm got carried. He's good, he's not 1C good.


Ok and what about their results vs Elite Competition? Lindholm was significantly better at creating and preventing chances than Strome.

Arguing Relative stats is stupid as it's a comparison of their teammates. Calgary was a much better team statistically last year than Washington so logically Calgary would have a much higher bar in terms of relative stats

Exactly, that's the point of relative stats lol It's so show guys can still be good on bad teams and good guys on great teams might not be that good.

As for stats against Elite Competition according to PuckIQ, this is how each faired:

Lindholm
263 TOI
54.10CF%
-2.60CF%Rel
52.6DFF% (DFF is essentially high danger chances)
-3.90DFF%Rel

Strome
280 TOI
46.10CF%
-1.40CF%Rel
47.1DFF%
+0.40DFF%Rel

So Strome was better against elite competition and even played more minutes against them while on a worse team (due to injuries).

No that's not how relative stats work at all. It is a comparison of teammates. If a team is generally filled with bad players then the top players for that team will look much better relatively.
For example Clayton Keller vs Elite comp had a 47.8 CF% with a +7.30 CF%Rel, along with a 46.3 DFF% with a +6.60 DFF%Rel.
Whereas Miko Rantanen vs Elite comp had a 48.6 CF% with a -0.40 CF%Rel, along with a 46.9 DFF% with a -2.40 DFF%Rel.
By your logic Keller was clearly the better player when in reality that's not true.

Well maybe he is. What does it say when Rantanen on a better team looks meh and Keller on a bad team looks great? What happens if you swap those players? Rantanen probably gets shredded while Keller does even better.

No it's just their opinions. They're wrong opinions, but they are opinions. I'll still with the numbers.
