Monahan's possession numbers were only 45% last night? So what? Tell what he did with it when he had the puck. Tell me something interesting that you saw during the game. Don't tell me Hamilton's corsi was 52% and Smith's save percentage was .912. That tells me nothing of value.
I agree somewhat, but am really looking forward to giving it a chance.

I think we just see a lot of lazy stat reporting. Letting numbers influence your analysis gets boring. But letting the numbers support good analysis sounds really interesting.
