OT: Byfuglien's D stats vs F stats this season?

[TinyRivers]

Hi folks, I was wondering if anyone here knows where to find the above stats.

In my hockey pool, one team is using Buff as a D, but in our rules, if a player plays more games as a forward than a defenseman, then his stats are counted as such.

Defense is important in our pool, so he's hoping Buff plays more D than F before the season ends...

So, I'm basically wondering how many games he's played at each position...

Thanks for any info you can provide...

Doug.

He's played more games on defense than games left on the season.

TBH any statistic hasn't regressed for Forward as he hasn't played many games.

That said, I doubt he is a better F than D, and early stats say it.

I guess cut and dried, if at season's end, he had played 40 games on D, and 42 at F, then I need to change him to a forward.

I guess what I'm looking for is;

Has he played defense up until this change, and does anyone know which game he started playing forward...

Thanks again...Doug.

He played more than half a season at D. He could play out the season as a FWD and he would still have played more games as a D by the end.

His first game at FWD was the columbus game, Noel's last as the coach.

And there's the answer.
