The recent TSN article on Chris Snow said Snow has hired one new analyst and plans to continue to grow that department . Guess this guy is the first

The dude is 25 and has 2 bachelor's degrees and 1 master's degree all in subjects that sound pretty intense. I am guessing some credits transferred over, but that is a lot of accomplishment for such a young person. And he has work for the Rangers for the past 4 years.

Smart people like this can help a GM identify positive (or negative) patterns in players that other might miss using conventional methods (like how attractive his skating style is).

A Bachelor of Mathematics in Statistics at University of Waterloo and a Bachelor of Business Administration in Finance at Wilfrid Laurier - at the same time, there might not have been much credit transfer at all. Amazing actually.

He doesn't seem like a prick, and we all know that the surest obstacle to success is through hiring nice people.

Not to downplay his accomplishment, but there is a partnership between Laurier and Waterloo that allow for this. One of my friends in University, his brother went through a similar program between these 2 universities.
