Do you ever get the feeling stats and analytics don't tell you the full story, and may never offer up the answers you are looking for?

Have never said stats tell the full story.
Suggesting there are answers I'm looking for basically paints that I want stats to prove me right and others wrong. Not the case at all.

Or do you think if you stare at them long enough, and answer will appear?

No I don't see anything mystical happening. However I do think looking at something deeply is probably better than not looking at all because one's mind is made up.
It wasn't meant to be pissy, it's just that you keep going back to the stats, and I think it should be fairly clear this year they aren't a reliable predictor for success. So why would the analytics guys see any benefit on pouring over the season? Will they pinpoint the one thing(or things) that went wrong based on high danger shots, or whatever?

Because chances are they will see what you have been seeing, and that is that all the numbers say the team should have been better. And if that is the case they won't see what needs changing and we end up with another year of GG hockey, which clearly hasn't worked out to well for us.
