Let me ask you this, since you seem to believe this measure being useful but imperfect. When you run an experiment and you allow the controls to change, affecting the variable, what do you think happens to your data? Is it reliable and verifiable? What happens when you change the make up of a team from year-to-year, or change the system under which a team plays compared to others in the league? Is this reflected in the NHL-E model?
