Pavs looks, via these stats, way better than i think we give him credit for on this board. I've been low on him a lot recently, but reading this adds some confidence for this season

Don’t say eye test when you mean points
Pavelski was our MVP in the regular season, and the way he stepped up as the #1C in the absence of Joe Thornton was incredible. However, he is aging, he has clearly declined a step, and his playoff performance in the last 4 rounds the Sharks have played in has left much to be desired. His splits between his time against playoff teams and non-playoff teams also create reason for some concern.

For sure. we have the benefit of watching his every game vs these reporters who have to cover the whole league. Those shiny stats laid out in the article certainly overshadow reality.

NHL Season Previews Preview: Measuring Uncertainty
Paywall
The Athletic simulated the season (game by game) more than 100,000 times. And with the parity in the league and simple luck, it's hard to predict the season standings at the end. They'll start their season previews, team-by-team starting 8/29 and run into September. So, just because a team was ranked 31st (like New Jersey last season) does not mean they'll finish last.

(100k season simulations done before trade. Haven't yet read article to see how they "adjusted" with EK65 coming in.)

Pollak with quotes from Owen Nolan, Jonathan Cheechoo, Brian Boyle, and Douglas Murray on the best Sharks squad they were on and how it compares, on paper, to this season's team.
