Seeing TB being beat down makes me want to take a nice big dump in all the analytic experts coffee mugs

What?

What does analytics and Tampa Bay getting spanked have in common?

Everyone had TB as favorites. When Chicago got swept in 2016 did you feel the same way?

Hawks didn’t have the season the bolts just did

And I think he is more referring to anyone can beat good teams that are stats darlings if they work hard enough

So because everyone thought TB should win and they aren't, analytics is stupid?

Analytics have been predicting the hurricanes take the next step, they're down 3-0. That's probably a better target.

Again I am not sure why you care so much about what I think? I am happy to see old fashion in your face hockey win over zone entries ,speed, and midgets. Sorry if it offends you.

I can't say the two teams that I think will be in the finals because If I reveal them, they will lose.

Don't know what Alex Turcotte's status is, but this week's under-18 worlds are going to be nuts for draft fans regardless -- if Kirby Dach gets eliminated tonight (trails 5-3 mid 3rd), that means 8 of my top 11 prospects for the 2019 draft will be competing against one another.

Going to be very interesting to watch the results in Tampa if they get eliminated .
Do you do some major carving because the team isn't built for a playoff run or believe the regular season results are the true measure of the team and it was just a hiccup.

It doesn't offend me, I just think the statement makes just as much sense if you said seeing TB get blown out makes me want to take a crap in the eye test coffees cups.

As far as I can tell there wasn't a debate between analytics and old school on which team was favored. Both groups had TB.
