I wouldn't, but only because after puempel our depth of potential scoring wingers dries up pretty quick. Every other viable prospect (hoffman, stone, lazar) aside from Prince is already in the NHL.

If we keep up this kind of record until the deadline, we could maybe explore giving up our first this year, maybe something like this:

PHX: Gormley, David Moss
OTT: 1st 2015, Shane Prince

It's a little tiring that these Sens blogs turn into an advanced statistic debate. We have a team that is on a 4 game winning streak to start the season. This is really positive stuff to see. Whether or not stats prove we are worthy of this or not, really shouldn't be a huge concern. Advanced stats, old school stats, and plain old watching how players/teams play should all be used together when analyzing. It's naive to think any one area is more valuable to know/utilize than others.

Well, there was no mention of stats in Jared's blog comments until he brought it up. We were just pointing out that it might not be a good idea to claim the stats are biased, incorrect, or flawed if you don't understand them. Jared's a good blogger when he sticks to what he knows.
