Advanced stats are useful but you make it sound like they mean absolutely everything and that nothing else is important about how good a player is.


they are more useful then just "watchnig" players. Most of the charts I use, are directly derived from those things that you watch.

Then are evidence to support claims


there are a bunch of weird stats like corsi that don't seem to tell that much.

It measures shot attempts, which is a good indicator of puck possession. If you have a higher Corsi, you control the puck more than your opponent and you, generally, control pace of the game. However, you have to convert on these shot attempts or else you become like the LA Kings where you lead the league in Corsi, but you can't actually score.

I dont understand why people think NJD and PHI will be bottom of the division/league. And then people have NYR and NYI in the playoffs.

there are stupid posts and there are posts that make my eyes pop out of their sockets because I refuse to believe what I am reading. I don't even know how to argue with you. You willfully ignore every argument and just keep perpetuating single, empty statements you've heard a TV person say or read a team beat writer write

TBL over Toronto in 4? I agree TBL is better but in 4? Also, if Calgary beats Edmonton, i'd think it would be close than 5 games.

NJD is terrible ... they were maybe the worst team at the end of the year in 16-17.
