So, at the Olympics break, I thought I'd summarize some plus/minus numbers on our defensemen. I believe plus/minus can be useful when evaluating teammates, especially defensemen.
I like to sum up the numbers and chart them since it makes it really easy to visualize trends and which way the numbers are headed.
Kronwall had a great first part of the season and has been in a decline since December.
Ericsson is on a nice upward trend with significant chunks missing due to injury.
Quincey had an awful two months to start the season but has held steady for awhile and might be on the upswing.
Kindl has just been declining.
DeKeyser has been pretty steady.
Lashoff has been remarkably steady.
Smith went down then up in the first two months and has held pretty steady since.
Anyway, sorry for the crappy chart but I thought it was interesting enough to share.
