meh. Same kind of stats that said Nino Niederreiter was a hockey god. Happy analytics, with nothing actually tangible that is impressive, 0 +/- and a ~25 point pace for the season on 29th place team.
Blue are having a weird year, lots of trailing in games. I think JFresh stats are relative to teammates as well, and Faulk and some of the other Blue's D are stinky defensively which makes the Parayko/Broberg paid look godly by comparison. Broberg's xGF drops a good amount away from Parayko as well, which Parayko is still >50% away from Broberg (Broberg 47% without Parayko).
Hope the Blues enjoy that deal. I still think this lad is pretty overrated after a lucky last season.

I'd still take Broberg at 8 over Nurse at 9.25 though

Indeed. And there is no question we screwed up royally with broberg as an asset.
It is a fact today that a team is willing to pay him 6x8M. We lost him for a pick and we had zero clue what he was capable of as he went out the door. Holland never had a clue what he could do, along with Holloway, our pro scouts and development team didn’t t have a clue. Bowman didn’t have a clue. JJ didn’t have a clue. Add to the list of brutal mismanagement events over the last 2 decades.
Another guy we would be happy to have that left without us having a clue what he was worth, Kesselring out the door for peanuts too when we were desperate for a RHD. He’s had a tough year of injuries but probably will be back strong soon.
