Yep, Bobroskies fault, all he had to do was when one more game. 1 extra shootout win and they make the playoffs. (Not really, but he could have dragged the team in by getting one more point)
In principle if you are one of the leagues best players your performance should drag a team to they playoffs. One elite defenseman, or Forward, or Goalie should get you to the playoffs with mediocre players around them.
Outside of that Andersons stats are better and with injuries he played on a worse team.
Edit: what i meant to say was if you have the best player in the league at a position your team should make the playoffs. I agree that elite players routinely do not make the playoffs.
