But I did do something easier that I believe takes this guys idea and at least normalizes it to a point where the numbers actually mean something, even if the data is garbage. My methodology is thus:

I assumed that Hits, Blocked shots and Takeaway/Giveaway differential actually defines grittiness. Silly presumption, I know, but it's somewhere to start.
So what you're really saying is RGI is bull#### and Ricardo is full of ####? I didn't need to do any regression analysis to figure that out.

Nice job on the stats by the way!
