Plus/Minus analysis on Sabres centers

As I try to kill time on this boring Friday afternoon, I'm scanning the Sabres stats and can't help but notice the +/- numbers of the Sabres top 2 centers.

Going into the Bruins game tonight, Roy is a -4 and Connolly is a -3.

It amazes me that a team 12-5-1 has two minus players centering their top scoring lines.

 

On a positive note, Gaustad is a +6. Kennedy is even.

 

I now have a greater appreciation for Ryan Miller and the defensive core...

Why else do you think the 3rd & 4th lines have been getting a lot of ice time, and are our better lines?

All the uproar about Vanek not being on the ice at end of games. Well, his line is letting in more than they are getting.
