Pick score is a raw comparison of number of picks vs average pick position.

For context, pick value sum and expected number of players are based on published pick value charts, and charts indicating likelihood of pick success relative to position.

Death knell of the Traverse City Prospect Tournament I suppose. On the other hand, as a Wings fan in Dallas, very exciting news to hear.

The average DeBoer term as a head coach is 3.5 seasons. He's just finished year 3 in Dallas, which means he is close to being cooked.

Whatever team can string together a winning streak will jump the pack really quick. Really just a matter of who can figure their lives out first.

Gustafsson had some REAL BAD games to start the season. Like, Chiarot-esque object permanence issues with regards to missing coverage. He's been in the deployment doghouse ever seince.

To elaborate, its really a bizarre thing that DET has a top-3 PP, but a bottom-3 5v5 possession team. And we've seen DET be amazing in spurts, so there's def something there. MAYBE a coaching change helps them find it, or maybe not? Worth a try? Or is the Larkin-centric rebuild cooked?

I think replacing the coach can be good when there is a question of "is this team is as bad as they look?"

If you change the coach and things legit improve, then we know it was Newsy. If the change happens and things stay the same, then we know the fault lies with Stevie on building an awful team.

I would be curious to see how team record stacks up as well. Is this increase in shot blocking resulting in any better outcomes for anyone? Who is benefiting from this trend, and who isn't? Typically great teams don't need to shot block as much, and bad teams suck at it.
