because 1) plus-minus is a horrible statSo in all seriousness.
Aside from Glen Wes why has nobody mentioned Malik? Career plus/minus of +133 is impressive. Yes, he frustrated all of us but he was good and the reason we were good in the late 90's early 2000's. Canes fans hated him though because he was a positional D man and not a physical one.
Surprised no one has mentioned the mysterious top-4 shut down defenseman who was just waiting in europe for the Canes to sign him, Josef Melichar.
Tomas Malec. They don't win the Cup without him. Kinda.
I swear I was so high on that kid I couldn't stand it. I really thought he was going to be another Sean Hill kind of player. Mean kid with some offensive potential that never really figured it all out. Tough bounce.
