And since no one in the analytics community suggests you should rely "SOLELY" on analytics either...is there a point?

I think it was Gabe Desjardins who broke winning down as 33% possession (Corsi), 33% goaltending/special teams, and 33% luck.

Flyers obviously got a really large dose of the latter two in the game, but i think we all know that's not a repeatable/sustainable path to victory.

Possession is the sole part of the equation that you can improve on, and repeat. See: two Cups for the Kings, as the leagues best FF-close team.
