I think there's value to analytics. It is still evolving.

The issue I have is when the Corsi playoff chart gets posted every nth post showing how low Calgary is with no comments. It is almost a troll job every time that gets posted. And then somebody always asks "what's the methodology behind this?"

How about thoughts on why Calgary is low on this chart? Or why this methology can't explain Calgary still winning and keeping pace in the playoff race despite some of the advance stats?

Perhaps exploring those questions will bring a more engaging conversation on here that may lead to a better application of some of the advance stat data that we have?
