I've said it before, but I can't buy into Corsi or Fenwick due to the subjectivity inputs. I feel like actual shots on net are often mis-counted, so how do you objectively count blocks and shots "at the net".
I was watched a game a few nights ago and Russell got his stick in just as the player was taking his shot. The result was the puck went up into the netting. Does this count as a shot at the net and block? Hrudey even commented on that (because it was the shot-blocking machine Russell).
Too much subjectivity at this point for me to truly trust shots / corsi / fenwick.
