Is my number 1 center a number 1 center on a playoff team? When answering that question deciding if an underperformance the previous year was unlucky, injury related, stalled development, an over performance or indicative of that players real performance is key and has to consider luck.

If you go through your roster and every player underperformed what you believe is their baseline then you are likely wrong because its unlikely that every player underperformed.

LOL.... well I guess the folks north of Calgary are satisfied that they are a Reider, Brodziak and maybe a PTO like Garrison or Upshall, away from being a team even better than the one that won a playoff round 2 seasons ago
