On Tuesday, I attempted to make an easy-to-understand case for Vancouver Canucks defenseman Luca Sbisa. It might need some additional elaboration.
To get my point across, I used some advanced stats that seemingly prove that Sbisa is much better than many think. As was pointed out in the comments, though, saying “Sbisa tied for sixth in the league in goals for percentage relative to team mates” while Shea Weber ranked 190th, doesn’t tell the whole story. Weber was elite and arguably still is close to elite while Sbisa isn’t and most likely never will be.
