If these advanced stats were legitimately effective it would factor in that the top pairing of Giordano and Hamilton look so good because the next two pairings have been borderline incompetent all season.
There were many plays last night that sum up exactly why Gio and Dougie have some serious holes in their games. Lapses in the corners, playing way too soft on forwards around the net etc.
They are a good pair but let's not pretend they are amongst the leagues best here. If they were, the Flames would certainly be a few more rungs up the standings.
