Two factors:
1) Oilers getting all these high corsi players and then "playing for corsi" leading to team failure.
2) Flames. Just wtf is happening? No stat explains the Flames right now.

Just another unbelievably dominant game (several in the last little while) where we've been out-corsi'ed so hard and yet was so comfortable.
How does belief factor in? It's simply data. There's nothing to believe.

Edit: Unless you are saying that you believe in drawing conclusions on how good teams are, from advanced stats.
