In Lou We Trust, a New Jersey Devils community

Continuing to look at UFA centers for the New Jersey Devils in 2010, I compare them by goals versus threshold to determine what they've done last season for their respective teams and what role they could play in the future.

How well did Ilya Kovalchuk contribute on offense, defense, and in the shootout as an Atlanta Thrasher and a New Jersey Devil in 2009-10? A look at Kovalchuk's goals versus threshold value in each shows him to be one of the best total contributors in the league last season.
