That's dancing.

I'm suggesting some simple facts.

1. The Flames are worse off with their 5th defenseman traded with no roster add.
2. The team is sheltering the fourth line even more than they have in the past which proves #1
3. They are getting filled in more than pairings that had Zadorov were which justifies #2
4. They are now upping the ice time of their top four to compensate for #1, #2 and #3
5. They can't do that indefinitely.
And if they are better over the next 20 games? Are you willing to admit they weren't worse off?

or will the 3rd pairing fancy stats trump the teams record?

I would say they will be better for the rest of the year but obviously if they trade their actual important dman that is gonna change
