I really like Dillon, but he's the only one of the non-puck movers who had a good season this past season, and I think both Seigs and Kovy have a fair liklihood of a bounce back season, so I hope it's Dillon who gets moved. I hate selling low on good players, and having it come back to bite us -.plus, I want to see if a fully healthy Seigs and Kovy pairing can recapture what they had two seasons ago. It would be great if they could be a lock down defensive pair, again.
Great stuff JP! Love this application of the LB-Hockey data. 🔥
One small note is that MoneyPuck is no longer part of the site's data sources, having been replaced with our own expected goal/value models and pipeline directly through the NHL API. So the metrics are compiled from that and AllThreeZones now!
Dallas’s struggles at 5v5 in the playoffs last season make more sense with this context, and also when you consider Heiskanen was playing through injury. I think the Capitals also struggled to generate offense last season too. Two teams that underperformed expectations due to lack of offense are also top-heavy in terms of puck-moving from the back end.

Ope, I’ll adjust! Thanks for the data, Louis!! Keep up the excellent work.
How would you rate Silayev and Casey as potential puck movers?
