Likely??? Yeah the guy that sees the 2nd toughest opposition in the league "likely" saw the tougher mins last night.....

Hes looked really good so far this year.

It is, this quote sums up what I like about it though.




it's all useful, IMO. Not perfect by a long shot, but's certainly not irrelevent.

highly flawed.

Phaneuf saw tougher mintues, likely.
- Talkshowhost

By far tougher minutes & he did a good job at preventing high scoring chances, neither of which Corsi or Fenwick take into account.

There are QoC and Fenwick hybrid stats out there but I think even they would have had Phaneuf below Franson on the night which would be wrong.

So Brian Burke poisoned him eh?


Must be how he pulls some of these trades. Get the other GM sick and phone them while they are weak and delirious.

Why the hell was he there, he shouldnt of been allowed to even enter the building Gotta ban him from Toronto, HES GUNNA STEAL OUR PLAYERS

Their predicitve power has been proved accurate.

They are best used over big samples, yes.

No. No they haven't.

No more, no less than a teams win/loss record in a season. Or goals for/against totals. In fact, those bush stats just completely (frank)ed up last nights outcome. Predictive power? My ass.

Don't let people talking math upset you man.
Change is scary I guess, ah well it was the same debate in baseball, it'll eventually subside in hockey too.
Here, this is a good read from some Leafs fans.

This kind of stuff is only going to get bigger. I think it's a cool idea to know what people are actually talking about.

1 win + 1 win + 1 win = 3 wins. 0 losses + 0 losses = 0 Losses. 5 goals > 4 goals. More goals in a game = win. Less goals in a game = loss. More shots =........nothing but more shots. Better possession numbers =.....more possession.

Dont let math upset you man. 5 - 4 = a loss if you're the 4. You're the 4. Stop crying,.

Just because I rejected it, it doesn't mean I never educated myself first. I read it, heard it, saw it and think very little of it. Just because I dont accept your bush stats doesn't mean im ignorant to the issue.

You have the best math.

I have a history of starting out slowly. My game starts to pick up around mid November. Stay tuned.
