How do you know, because there isn't a book on it? Guess what before Oakland people thought the same thing is baseball, and did for years after their success.

Guess which team leads the hockey analytics revolution. CHICAGO! Last I checked they were pretty good.

Ever think Chicago is ahead of the game with analytics and uses it to determine which players to keep and let go, and in drafting?

But hey, I must be thick skulled and dumb because I showed an example of a sport where the EXACT same comments about advanced stats were being made less then a decade ago.
