The 2013 Wild are pointed to as a "fluke" team. Well are they still a fluke team?
The Flames becoming a better corsi team would follow if they likely become a stronger overall team. That's not gonna be denied by anyone.
The Flames staying pat as a corsi team does not predict them out of the playoffs next year. Specifically, it can't predict their shooting percentage to "regress".
Analytics are excellent until they're treated as predictors. That's why we can't stand people using Analytics as predictors of success.

Guys....please honour my OP
This article really captured the essence of the team for me. I'm so emotionally invested at this point that missing the playoffs will be a huge disappointment in the short term. In the longer term no matter what happens, this experience is going to be so beneficial in developing our young players.
Also I really like that Treliving has stated over and over that they're going to stay the course during the rebuild, and then backed it up at the trade deadline by accumulating more picks. I agree with the article that says a risk that the team faces is trying to "accelerate" the rebuild.
Going to the game tonight...GFG
