Model doesn’t measure shot placement.

I’m not disputing that the Flames carried the play.

But (don’t get mad here) anybody who watched the game should have been able to see where the shots hit the goalie.
So if you're trying to avoid people getting mad, why walk out that same crap then?

Shot models look at placement. They don't look at the ability of a player to miss the goalie.

But it's equal on every count.

So unless you're suggesting the Flames are epically worse at hitting the goaltender (could be true), there's really nothing to say here.

I prefer counts, keeps the bias out of it.
