I think a lot of the name's listed here have been for good reason.
The following is a blend of EH's GAR and xGAR models:
That said... it is early so I'll break down each player and their results:
Ehlers
I don't think anyone is going to deny that Ehlers has been the Jets best forward and overall player. The exact value may be wrong on these players but I think the overall trend is correct.
Lowry
He's been much better this season. I think some of that EVO is a bit "luck" (ie: variance) but he's been solid. Some of Appleton's EVO is being wrongfully attributed to Lowry, IMO. That is one of the weaknesses of these models, especially early on when you have players pinned together.
Scheifele
Has he been this good? Maybe, maybe not. Has he been the better of Connor, Scheifele, Wheeler... I think so. I think maybe some of the data has his EVD to high and Wheeler and Connor's too low.
Perreault
He's baaaack!
Copp
Copp has always done good in these models. He's just getting some more recognition with a bigger role and ice time, IMO.
Stastny
Been a great addition to the team and has stabalized the Jets down the centre. He's aging but more gracefully than Wheeler.
Lewis
Not bad for a PTO. Defensive specialist doing all you could hope for with a 4th line vet. Much better than some of the past 4th line vets Jets have had before.
Appleton
I think he's a bit better than the model suggests as I think it's probably overly attributing his offense to Lowry, but overall not bad.
Connor
In the Laine role he's really driving the PPO, but he may be taking the all offense no defense thing too far. I do think the model has overly attributed the defensive issues to Connor and Wheeler and then given Scheifele all this value to counter act that, but still Connor has been poor defensively.
Gus and Ves
Too small of a sample to say anything meaningful.
Harkins
Did not expect this. I'm interested how much of it is him and how much is false attributions and sh% variance since it's mostly offense.
Wheeler
Listen... some of it is PDO. Some of it is poor luck. Some of it may be injury. He's probably not actually THAT bad, but he's been bad. There's no way to deny that.
