Sample sizes and all that, but interesting nonetheless.

Hahaha no it isn't, we're a week in. Even the "top CF% teams" might not actually be good at puck possession, you can't tell after a couple of games. Hockeyanalysis hasn't even bothered to start posting cumulative stats for this season yet. Quality of competition, for one thing - some teams have played good opponents, others not so much, many have played the same team twice. Check back in December.

Agree with this, he's not a young guy anymore. If they don't play their backup ~30 games, Miller will definitely fade. So they'd better hope Markstrom has finally figured out how the NHL works... Gee, you know who might be handy to have around in this situation? Eddie Lack.
