xGF%: 46.86
SCF%: 46.46

That's not pretty (also, Raz is surprisingly terrible by all these metrics as well).

That's a bad pairing that is outperforming their underlying numbers. Once that comes back to Earth, the Flames are really going to struggle.
I’ll be honest. I have no idea what those stats mean. But via my eyes I have thought the following:

- Andersson is having a great start to the year. Probably our best dman. Arguably best player.

- Bahl missed all of training camp but got up to speed quite quickly. He’s a physical force but not as much of a roller coaster as Big Z was. Great pickup by Conman. I would put him as our 3rd or 4th dman. He’s probably better than Pachal and Miromanov at this point. Gets a bit better each game as the rust falls off.
