The problem with Kane is he’s playing with Scheifele and Maclean..a)Scheif isn’t showing he’s NHL ready yet b) Maclean is an AHLer for now.

I know Ladd Little and Wheeler did well last year, but so far they havn’t created alot. Move one of them with Kane and we’d have more balanced lines. Teams wouldn’t be able to key on the ladd little wheeler line.

Thanks Tim, while I don’t think it is too nerdy, it is interesting to look at who has been getting the icetime for the Jets. I am curious to see where Kane will get his icetime from, it appears the Wellwood/Antropov/Burmistrov has shown some good chemistry and I don’t think the Ladd/Little/Wheeler line will be broken up.

I think we could get a lot nerdier. Roger Neilson’s Individual Scoring Chances +/- (Neilson Numbers), Corsi numbers. Who’s the mathlete that’s going to take this on for the Jets?

I like these nerdy stastical analysis articles! Kane really needs to be playing more, probably in favor of Wellwood. I’ve been impressed with Glass and Slater and it looks like Noel has been too.
