You don't quantify a "playoff team". You're either a playoff team or you're not a playoff team. The Avs are a playoff team. The Flames were a playoff team last year.
I'm qualifying that there are playoff teams that rely excessively on elite goaltending, and I don't personally want to build a team that relies excessively on elite goaltending.
I'm quantifying that there are a few criteria I put together, of which eleven teams currently satisfy the criteria, and ten of those eleven are in a playoff spot right now, and the one that isn't probably won't satisfy the power play stat a month from now anyways and also doesn't have their starting goaltender.
Not sure what's so hard about that. The only reason it's been so aggressively attacked is because the words "corsi" and "fenwick" were in it and people want their soapbox to complain about something they can choose to ignore.

Northcrunk's brick wall is very relevant. You have listened to absolutely nothing I've said and just play the victim card thinking we're out to get advanced stat people. As I just mentioned like 20 god damn minutes ago, Advanced stats are a great support tool.
You are one of the biggest advocates of advanced stats but are doing more harm than good for the advanced stat community with how you are presenting these stats and the conclusions you are coming to.
I mean this in the most respectful way possible, but you lack the ability to comprehend and use advanced stats in a productive way. I'm done with this discussion that has been an endless circle of saying the same thing over and over trying to convince two stubborn posters that they are horribly wrong.
