+/- is a team stat. You'd be hard-pressed to find a regular player on a basement team with a positive +/-, and the inverse is true for players on champion teams.
Adam Larsson was +15. Their good players were pretty much all in the +. Larsson, Cammalleri, Zajac, Henrique, Palmieri, Elias, Andy Greene. All players outside of Schlemko, Josefson and Tootoo were -15 and better. With a goalie like Schneider it's not surprising. Technically speaking you should not be -22 with a goalie like that behind you even while playing for a bad team.
But that's not the point i'm trying to make anyway. My point is mostly he can't be considered a realistically good option. A 30 years old guy who played top 4 only one season in his career, for a losing team and whose pairing statistically did a poor job can't be considered a good option to play with Weber.
Just to be clear the losing team part is not me blaming Schlemko for NJ losing. It's me saying he was top 4 because the team was not good.
