First off, every stat you just posted was bolstered by the fact Larsson played in front of Schnieder.
2nd, he's still a young and developing d-man who is now going to be labeled a "solution" and thrown into the tire fire that is one of the worst defensive teams / systems in the NHL. It remains to be seen how he'll handle that being a 23 year old. It's a ton of pressure to put on a young kid.
3rd, how does the absence of Hall's goals and points automatically make Edmonton "a better team" because of a young #3 d-man being added to the worst blue-line in the league?
Gross overstatements on your part all the way around.
