Umm signing him for league minimum means we cant be frustrated when he struggles?
You need to stop looking at the stats but rather evaluate him based on his actual play. Not everything shows up on the stat sheet
It means we should consider he is excellent value on a cost/performance ratio.
If stats mean so little why keep track and why are they brought up in contract negotiations. If ranger was a minus 7 right now, I'd bet all the people that say don't look at his stats would be pointing to that minus 7
