I watched nearly every Avalanche game this season, so I can tell you where each of our forwards stands in comparison to one another. However, since neither I nor anyone else has time to watch every single game for every single team, it’s hard to say how our players stack up to the rest of the league. For that we tend to rely on pundits, bloggers, commentators, and statistics.
So with that in mind, being a pundit, blogger and commentator myself, I will give you a comparison of Avalanche forwards based on stats.
The problem with stats in hockey is that no one stat can tell you if a player is good or not.
