Stuck On Stats

Watching the Wings over the years I have learned indidual statistics don't mean much as long as the team is winning and playing together. A perfect example this year are the Sabres, not one player in the top 70 for total points yet the team is 2nd in the NHL in points. Let me make a point out something from Kevin Gibson of 640am in Toronto,

Chris Chelios made the team? The same Chelios that is tied for 171st in defensemen scoring this season. I know there is always second guessing when you choose teams such as Olympic squads, but Chelios at the age of 44 skating after the young guns on the big ice? I don't think so. Brian Leetch or Ken Klee would have been better. I guess Chelios is their there for his leadership.

I wonder if Kevin will say the same about Draper if he is selected to Team Canada? Draper has 1 goal and 6 points this year and is a -5.
