Month to month defensive zone starts. Shot % when he's 1 of 10 players on the ice....stats like these are statistically useless and i understand why people use them. I don't see any value whatsoever compared to saying "he looks skilled but thinks slow". The who is everyone involved in the multi-page argument about zone stats....like they actually matter when looking at a single player.
