That it's OK to want a high talent player to do more. That people that point it out aren't crazy. Reinhart looks good tonight

Tanev stinks, you can give me all the numbers you want. His first bad game and this blog will explode.

i'm sure Tanev would contribute more then what Kane is doing, the DA's office will be alot quieter.

If we can tread water with this second unit we may be OK.

This is the flaw in advanced stats it's both overinclusive and underinclusive, and measures stats that are not outcome determinative.
- Der Kaiser


What ^^he^^ said.

I think it can be a useful tool when used correctly. But it's still in its nascent form in hockey and we're not quite sure what stats to use as a baseline. And the outright exclusion of special teams makes no sense either.

Hey, look at that! A shot on a 2 on 1!

Backhand, skating 20mph. Just getting a stick on it is hard enough.

Based on our numerous high quality scoring chances we are winning right now, right?

Dan D said that a ref helped Schwartz get to the bench. Did anyone see this? Did it happen during game time? If so, that seems weird.

I agree but this isnt just one or two numbers. eye test, analytics, basic stats tend to point towards the team being better defensively when tanev is on the ice vs off. I used those specific numbers because those happen to be the ones we are worst at defensively and the teams that tend to do well are usually amongst the elite.
