The physical shot count data is generally accurate, where statisticians are finding discrepancies in shot collection is the area the shots are from. The next wave of advanced statistics is going to be location based shooting(ie who's the most efficient finisher in certain areas of the ice/ who gets the most shots of in a certain area and which players concede the highest percentage shots when defending).
