And even if you take corsi as relevant, it was pretty clear early on that it wasn't to us. So why are we still pretending that it's valuable information to last years Flames?
This stuff is all so boring. Advanced stats are fine as an addition, but when we're consistently being told that the results shouldn't be what they are because of them, and the results continue being what they are for multiple seasons, they really are just noise and they've jumped the shark.

I haven't seen correlation % for high danger chances, but simple shot attempts have been shown to be 85% correlated with standings results.
Clearly a plane crash would be much higher in correlation to death, but 85% is a long way past a coin toss.
If you find it boring why are you in this thread?
