So yeah I'd love to believe that Calgary now has a leg up with their own data, and will crush it going forward.

But the guy was hired in 2011, it would take time to get all that data up and running, but the team brought in Troy Brouwer and James Neal with him in the office.

Faulty model? Wasn't listened to?

We will never know I would assume.
Good points. This is all obviously speculation but what if the use has continued to evolve with CGY. Like there was more weight to gut and intangibles so those other guys were signed despite what Snow may have presented as info to consider. Treliving upon introspection and assessment learns, adapts and weights his analytics (which is continually evolving too) more. I see this could go on and on in circles and maybe I'm hoping for a secret sauce but as it's been pointed out - not an exact science and dealing with human beings will always be complex.
