Stats are not a substitute for the real thing.

I'm pretty sure Myrtle watches far more games than you, or 90 per cent of fans, do. A person can watch lots of hockey
and analyze stats.
But yes, there are limits to how much hockey a person can watch. So where does that leave us when it comes to hockey commentary?
A) If you want to have any credibility as a league-wide hockey analyst, you need to spend 15 hours a day watching recorded hockey games.
B) There should be not be any such thing as league-wide analysts, since A is impractical. We should only have individual team reporters reporting on hockey. Or better yet - enthusiastic and highly partisan fans!
