Have any of the PhD types looked at hockey related data and done any sort of real analysis on it? All I'm really seeing is amateur type enthusiasts seemingly without any sort of related credentials working on this stuff.
If more of the smart types working on this, we might get past using luck as a means to describe things that don't fit a mold which seemingly only works 65% of the time.
