Anyway, it's true that it's pointless to go over it - it is what it is, he's not going anywhere.

No you can't include the powerplay or PK when looking at a plus/minus type statistic. Come on now Gio, you said you wanted rational discussion and not made up numbers.
PP counts when looking at goals, sure, but not a goal differential stat comparing to guys who are on the PK.
He is 15th on the team 5on5 expected goal differential, minimum ice time of 50 minutes. Full stop.
