If the Flames analytics are showing different, they've made mistakes.

My point is, many GMs thought Risto was worth a 1st round pick. Are they not also using analytics? Is there something wrong with the analytics in general or is there something wrong with the analytics that the Flames are using specifically?
How can the Flames be so adamant that Risto is a bad player, yet multiple teams offered a 1st round pick for him AND he's going to be a UFA too.
Something doesn't add up.
This board is laughing at the deal because we all here think Risto sucks, but that's because we've been fed by the Flames that Risto sucks. Does he suck or are the Flames just wrong and we are wrong for buying what they were selling? It's hard to give the Flames the benefit of doubt when they have been a complete failure in player assessment, the results speak for themselves.
