If the Oilers give up even more scoring chances than the Flames, Dubnyk's numbers probably are even better than 7th in the league, probably somewhere around 5th..

Alright... Links to these "hockey observers"? I want to see who these people are and how they came to that conclusion. If it's just some bum who drools out msm narratives then honestly I couldn't care less what they say. If they put the work in to demonstate something I'll take a look and give it due consideration.
I really can't say for sure who has a better defensive game... Because who wants to watch the Oilers

. But the stats say they're worse once you take goaltending out of the equation.
And Dubnyk's numbers are his numbers if he's 7th then he's 7th and by extension literally can't be 5th.
