I understand you are trying to defend the deal which is totally fine. I am just voicing my opinion on the deal. I am not getting my pitchfork out and demanding it be reversed. I am simply saying it was a good move by you and a great sell high.

Well like I said - I enjoy these debates so not upset at all. i think they are actually really valuable ways to explore the concept of value in the league. I wish we had more of those conversations.
To answer your question - I think plus/minus is pretty much the worst stat in the world. I give it zero value. Zaitsev has a very similar stat line at -22 so I don't think it is indicative of actual play.
I'm still trying to get my head wrapped around some of the more advanced stats, so don't have a strong view.
I do think TOI is a particularly strong indicator of where a player slots. But it doesn't account for whether or not they are the #1 dman on their team because the team lacks a true #1. And that's probably what is the case here. Morgan is probably a #2 at this point, and over-worked against the toughest match-ups.
