Otherwise it's a subjective opinion, and that's all it is.
The plus minus differential is pretty easily supported by the same data. Nazem Kadri has the highest expected goals /60 against on the Flames this year, so naturally more actual goals would go in.
He's -9 vs expected. Backlund is +6 vs expected which is far less of a range. than +20 and -18.

It’s odd that the goalies play differently for these guys
One of whom is known for the egregious turnovers and lack of compete in atoning for his errors. To me.
And the xGA thing … let’s be clear that having a relatively high xGA is not a good thing - it’s part of the problem!
