And that will be a big leap in my mind.

If you're shooting from a bad angle ... goalie doesn't move at all. But even a shot from the middle can sometimes not result in the goalie having to move much.

I think in the next couple of years, stats are going to take a massive leap forward. Even something as simple as 'possession' has to be indirectly measured, thereby adding a degree of inaccuracy.


I actually look forward to a more reliable and accurate set of statistics, some of which I am going to guess most people here probably haven't even thought of, but that we will all come to use regularly.



This is not to say that I don't enjoy what is available now (and I appreciate you always including them in your Game Takes). I also appreciate you breaking down some of those definitions (and patiently doing so).
