Matt Henderson: Demoting Marincin Was A Mistake

Agreed.



We'll take him for Sbisa, Eakins will like him since he throws big hits.

So what does the opening night roster look like?

4 lines. 3 people on each line. 6 dmen. A goalie. A backup goalie. Some coaches and training staff.

You ask weird stuff.

Before Marincin was sent down, I could tell that Mac T thought highly of Klefbom, and perhaps higher than Marincin, by reading through the lines during Mac T's interviews.

Did that play into the decision? Not really sure. Just something I personally perceived.

It's his dreamy abs that won him the spot.

Agreed.

We will take Tanev for a mid round pick

He'll be back in no time, don't worry. The real mistake was keeping Draisaitl IMO

It's a very valid point

Not sure how it's a mistake, if he really struggles they can stills end him down.

Ask Josh Bailey how it's a mistake.

A lousy 9 games. Teams do it with rookies all the time.

If 9 games really damages a player's development then he wasn't a strong enough prospect to begin with. Keeping him all season if he's not ready is a different story.

I have no problem with 9 games to see how he does with sheltered minutes. If he is having problems then I send him down without thinking twice

Corsi, Points, Shots, actual things that happened on the ice.

STOP IT ALL. KLEFBOM LOOKS LIKE AN UNDERWEAR MODEL AND ME LIKEY!

Not a real stat sorry...

Discussed by the coach of an NHL team who hired a man that pioneered the stat to be an advisor with the club. Deal with the fact that the stat is real and going to be present from here on out.

Oh it's real alright

A GOOD statistician will acknowledge the fact that their analysis is subject to misinterpretation. They will also admit that their analysis is only as good as the data that they have to work with.

Far too many analytics supporters want to use only the information readily available at their fingertips, ignoring an extremely large number of unanswered questions and then come to absolute conclusions.

So many things that affect each play are never accounted for. THAT is the shortcoming of analytics. Ice degradation, player injuries during game, muscle fatigue, mental issues and hundreds of other things will make a difference on every single play. None of these things are currently accounted for by analytics.

Analytics experts need FAR more quantifiable data if they want to claim accurate results. I'm not talking about basic mathematic facts, I'm talking about true analysis. Until analysts can actually gather more information to build an accurate picture, perhaps they should stop trying to claim that they can tell the rest of us the future.

This is getting a little blown out of proportion. Marincin will likely be back in no time, I think they are just trying to send a message about rewarding players for their efforts. Nurse should get a 9 game look but I eventually hope he gets sent down.
