PASCALL: His offence is gone. He's a defensive liability. I question whether the foot speed is still there.

CONROY: Nicholson is so pissed at his decline he's willing to eat up some of his contract to get rid of him.

TRELIVING: That's good.

PASCALL: And why do we want to be the ones to bail the Oilers out of his contract?

TRELIVING points at SNOW --

SNOW: He had a 51.6 Corsi-for last season.

Lucic gets on base!

As long as there is no Garth Snow like decisions. I'm good with this.

Good guy.

I got to sit beside him at a Flames poker tourney a few years ago, and chatted a lot about his role, stats they were using beyond the more frequently discussed ones such as Corsi at the time, also about evaluating goaltenders.

I wish him the very best.

Shows how far ahead of the NHL that MLB is in terms of statistical analysis.


Although, I guess baseball is a sport that would be naturally appealing to stat nerds because of how cleanly it lends itself to statistical analysis
