Plugs on playoff teams are pluses, stars on bottom teams are minuses. It literally means nothing. I’ve felt for years that, amongst fans, a horrible +\- for a player they like is a meaningless stat that doesn’t tell the entire story. It’s not his fault. But, a horrible one for a guy they don’t like, well, that just about sums him up completely then, and, let’s just get rid of the bum anyways. Totally subjective. That said, I’m fairly objective about it when it comes to my Fantasy teams. It’s rare that I’ll keep ANY player in the minus, regardless WHO it is. A guy has to be of a certain stature and with a proven overall track record of stellar performance for me to tolerate anything worse than a zero for very long. I even dumped Boeser last season because of that just before he got hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elias Pettersson Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 Del Zotto looked average again last night. I wonder if it's time to call up Juolevi. Does anyone know how he's doing in Utica? I can't see him being any worse than Del Zotto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coconuts Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 These injuries are brutal, we were genuinely competitive when healthy and all these injuries to key guys are killing us. Year after year it seems like we get hit with a wave of injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DontTouchMeGuys Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 I've said it forever- injury prone players never stop being injury prone. Gaborik, demitra, tim Connelly, edler, tanev, havlat,dipietro,lindross,sami salo. For most of these guys it wasn't even the same nagging injury, it was a different injury every time.

BlueDragon23 Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 We are cursed. The amount of injuries we get every year is becoming ridiculous. It’s frustrating because we can actually be competitive when 100% healthy, but I guess that’s too much to ask.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sorry Maybe one of the mods could create a new thread "The pluses and minuses of the +/- stat" and move the relevant posts over, thus tidying up nicely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looked slower than usual - prolly the weight of the "A" on his chest Brisebois has been playing better than OJ, hence the call up. Would be nice to see him get a game or 2 while he is here.

ftmN Posted October 29, 2018 Author Share Posted October 29, 2018 There hasn't been anyone mentioning Nilsson's timeline so- "He has a fractured finger, so Bachman will be up for a bit. Nilly will be out two-to-three weeks for sure." -Source. OP has been updated to reflect changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes it's also about what's best for a player's development and not the needs of a team with catastrophic injuries, who one kid isn't going to help. MDZ can shoulder all the hate of playing above his head in the injury fueled tire fire. No need to put OJ through that and stunt his development.

I had, and have, no issues with MDZ, but I also have no allusions to what he brings, or where he fits in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he has any plans to re-sign either...the sooner we can get a decent return in futures on him, the better IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they`ll still get a decent return, especially if they look at injury history and see that they were freak, albeit frequent, occurrences. He doesn`t have a history of a recurring injury or anything. Still, I agree, it has diminished his value somewhat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
