Somehow Gaudreau Tanev Tkachuk Lindholm, Hanifin, Mangiapane were stars but that didn't make a difference last year and likely will not this year.
I think that this pro-analytics article (along with the posting of how good the JFresh Flames were) is a solid argument that just says that throws up its hands and says analytics don't matter.

Not even remotely correct
The article noted that Gio, Andersson, Tkachuk, Monahan and Markstrom all had bad years. That’s 5 key guys
The Flames are a bubble team that had xGF and xGA that were better than their actuals
