Great point on both!
The Jackets are surly better than that, though they HAVE moved up. Remember they were last and are still being held down because of all the BT, Before Torts, stats. I manually adjust them up 40Cents every game because they're obviously a different team. Remember the Wild, last year after Dub? Same thing...Eventually the stats evened out and went from being ranked 30th all the way to 10th.
I was also hoping to see BUF higher. Their Ranking hasn't changed but their value has. The Defense has seen the biggest change. Improving in EVERY category. The issue? The numbers were so bad previously, they've had to play great lately just to make there overall average go from awful to AVERAGE. No better example than seeing them catch a FAIR LINE here vs DAL tonight. Why not inflate this line to DAL -250 like when we see BUF go to SJ every year? We also saw a FAIR LINE for them @ STL Thursday. Why? Because its clear this team is now dangerous.
So they are seeing "Line Respect" though being held back, ranking wise, by their previous poor stats. Especially the league worse PK%...though it is up to 73% from 67%.
