That’s not going to continue. So you are saying more goals…are…expected? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good win today by the Devils and Mackenzie. The Devils are 12th Overall, 9th in the Conference, 6th in the Division, and NOT in the Wild Card just in case. I realize it is the excitement of a winning season to date. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 Brewskies could have mentioned that the Devils are also just one point out of first. But I’m just glad that 0-2 didn’t turn into 0-4-1 or 1-4. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, same can be said for quoting any stat. Such a small sample size it's pretty meaningless. Take the wins and be happy and then see where things stand after the first 20 games.

Muevelos Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 Bahl seemed really solid at the end of last season aswell. He definitely deserves a full time spot I think. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 It has gotten to the point where there’s almost too much metric-chat during broadcats, but kinda hard to completely dismiss stats in sporting events. I mostly enjoy that side of it myself…the hardcore “metrics this and metrics that” crowd tends to be a bit too much for me, in that there’s definitely some within that group who just have a way of sucking the fun out of talking sports. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it has nothing to do with what point of the season it is. It’s literally just telling you one guy outplayed the other IN THIS GAME. The Devils created a lot more chances with Bahl than they did with Smith. That’s all it’s showing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satans Hockey Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 Hilarious to me that people are sh!tting on the fans already cause of a 3 game winning streak that includes wins over 2 of the worst teams in the league. Do I want Ruff to succeed? Of course, why would anyone who is an actual fan of this team want us to suck yet again? But lets hold the horses on that this whole thing is turned around... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not the particular stat or what it is used for. It is stats in general for ME! Performance can be explained without formulae. Again this is my opinion!

Not to mention the constant trips to the penalty box Smith keeps making. 3 minutes ago, Satans Hockey said: Hilarious to me that people are sh!tting on the fans already cause of a 3 game winning streak that includes wins over 2 of the worst teams in the league.

Yeah I always wanna be hopeful but there’s some legit measuring-stick games coming up. Looking forward to seeing how the Devils fare against those teams. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When all you have to go off is just the eye test, and one person’s opinion against another’s, it’s going to be subjective.

Smith had looked pretty good so far, using his body and making some decent plays. He's a veteran too, so I don't see any way they sit him. It wouldn't have made sense to bring him on board just to make him the 7th D-man. 17 minutes ago, mfitz804 said: I don’t think anyone who has watched the games could argue Smith is outperforming Bahl.
