Following the list of most improved players earlier, it's now time for the list of the most regressed players. This is a list you want to avoid being on. Being here does not mean you're not playing badly. It means that the season you're having is not ideal for your development, which could be because of stagnation, regression, or something else. Cole Eiserman leads this list, sorry Isles fans. In his draft year, my model had him at 84% to be a 1st liner. That dropped to 45% last year and is now at 10%. His unadjusted NHLe went from 19.5 to 14.5 to 10.8 in those years, respectively. Not ideal... Kent Johnson comes in next after regressing from a 69-point pace last season, down to a measly 25 this year. He looked like a 1st liner for Columbus before this season. Now there's more doubt as his 1st line odds have dropped from 59% to 9%. Some of the guys on this list come from a lack of statistical development in the same leagues as last year. Many of the next players fit this bill: Luca Cagnoni, Jett Luchanko, Matthew Poitras, David Jiricek, Shane Wright, Nikita Artamonov, and Tristan Luneau. Most of these players all still have solid shots to be NHLers, and good ones. That's only the case, though, if the trend they're on doesn't continue for much longer.

Fuck Torts, Cooper, Yandle, Whitney, McCrimmon, and all the other fucking knuckle draggers who had opinions on the Toronto market even though they've never set foot in it for more than a 24 hrs Private Jet touchdown. And evey scumbag media member who baits them for numbers.

You don't GUT a position for a " Maybe we have a better option later," not if you're a major league team trying to win. You don't get rid of that type of production. That is just as stupid & incompetent as one can get!
