Also a 0.7 shot-disparity. It seems to me that margins that are this small are also not especially relevant.

You are nothing if not consistent. You are conceptually challenged and seem proud of it.


The simple fact that great teams dominating the standings and being the obvious best teams of the era were not out-shooting the rest of the teams is a open and direct challenge to the concept that shots based possession stats have any value whatsoever.

If shots based stats were important in identifying good/great hockey teams I would have expected that the Oilers would have been out-shooting their opposition by a huge margin.
