but getting outplayed throughout the playoffs isn't a recipe for any team looking to win, I don't think following that model is a smart course.
Here are the top five and bottom five from the playoffs
Corsi
1. Minny
2. Caps
3. Jackets
4. Habs
5. Predators
16. Blues
15. Penguins
14. Rangers
13. Oilers
12. Sharks
Penguins an aberration, other teams out in 1st or 2nd round

best Corsi: Minny, CBJ, Habs...all bounced in the first round
worst Corsi: Blues, Pens, Oilers...all win a round
this proves what? how unpreditable theses stats are?

This is pretty clear stuff, stop drinking the Koolaid.

the only thing these stats tell me is that these stats are wildly unpredictable due to small sample size
Flames make the top 5 so many times cause they only played 4 games....ridiculously small sample size
but someone please give Minny the Advanced Stats Cup
