Ehlers hasn't received a single Hart vote in his career.Ehlers, Morrissey, Hellebuyck
(dammit, Nicolaj, play 80 games and PP1 and repay my faith in you!)
He's closer to being the Most Valuable Patient to our medical staff than the NHL's Most Valuable Player
It was also at a point in time he was performing bad. Most of the comments on this forum were echoing that during those seasons too. He's played better the past couple years and the stats seem to back that up.IIRC the claim was that JMo's was one of the worst D contracts by the stats, in terms of The Model. Don't think he ever called him one of the league's worst D.
They've said a ton of times that the Jets are tricky because The Model has found their historical combo of high scoring, crap D and elite goaltending hard to make sense of and/ or gain predictive value from.
There's an argument that if The Model consistently can't account for outlier teams like the Jets, then it's a model that needs some tweaking.
The Jets outscoring and/or out-tending their roster unevenness and defensive woes has been a familiar and frustrating theme over the years.
"Middleness" sounds even worse than that.
Middling I think refers more to the group compared to the rest of the league. Offensively they've been below average the last couple years, but I do think they have potential to be around top-10. Defensively at 5v5 last season they're middle of the pack but were great on the PK. Middling compared to the rest of the league imo isn't to far off.
