Are you seriously taking in four pages of stats that have him ranked league wide, contender wide, and team wide on line one two or three ad nauseum but focusing on the one that says fourth line and screaming "gotcha!"
That's pretty lame man.

Can you stop avoiding just giving us the raw numbers for the rest of the group for goals for, primary assists etc etc.
You're the most consistently stat oriented guy on this board and I am trying to talk stats with you and you're calling me lame or saying i don't believe in gravity because I keep asking you for data you seemingly have at your fingertips, and you won't supply it.
It's a really simple premise:
If bennett scores 1.00 goals per 60 and hathaway scores .98 goals per 60 i'm going to tell you that Hathaway is a better goal scorer because he didn't get 20 games with the second best offensive player in the lineup to pad those stats.
If Bennett gets 20 games with backlund and tkachuk and is only marginally more productive than guys that play 10 minutes a night exclusively with other guys who struggle to produce then Bennett's 'ranking' doesn't mean anything.
That you're fixated on 'ranking' tells me you already know this and are reticent to share that data.
