NHL November 2014 |OT| Cleary Must Be Always

I guess.
But it just seems insulting (from his point of view) having someone judge him right there based on Corsi alone.
But it tells us whether someone is generating more scoring chances then they are giving up, which is somewhat important in hockey?
If you're giving up more scoring chances then you generate then aren't you hurting your team?

I agree, randos on twitter have no business trying to tell players what to do, whether it's fancystats or whatever else. Just let the coaches do their jobs.
(and if the coaches aren't doing their jobs, then complain about the coaching)
The numbers game is important, sure, but I don't think it tells a complete story when you're watching a player on the ice.
It's a simple thought process on my part, and stats are important to the game, but I don't think players should be judged solely on them. Insert intangibles joke here.
But the guys that bring the "intangibles" on the leafs (Clarkson, Komarov, Winnik etc) are corsi monsters Quick!
Captain Intangible Jonathan Toews is also a corsi beast.
What people refer to as intangibles is something that should show up in corsi, if a guy plays hard like Komarov then he should be limiting chances against and pushing the puck down the ice.
Fair enough, I just thought Bobby Ryan was overreacting, that guy wasn't trying to talk shit based on corsi or anything, just trying to introduce a concept and he acted like a tool. Good for him.

Someone should ask him about the Clearsi and DopeyStats.

Yeah, I was reluctant to warm up to him but he's been impressive these last 3 games, team is really looking good for the first time in 5 years or more.

Pretty good sportsmanship there.
Also, love Nate Thompson.
At least we don't have to argue over coincidental minors

You're okay, Sammy.
Bobby Ryan overreacted, probably joking. I see both sides to it.

...And the Stars' defense continues to be shit. Again. =/
Looking back at the tweet it does kinda sound like he's joking, internet sucks for picking that stuff up though
Your pretty alright too Quick
Players definitely don't need to know about advanced stats really, unless it starts getting used in arbitrations or something.
So you're the Giggzy of Sharks-Age. tsk.

Good guy Perry
Just got back from some Halloween shit.
So with that said...
Leafs win?
STYLE ON EM LEAFS-GAF!!!
APPLAUSE
Haven't been following the season too closely. Are the Leafs doing okay after the first month?
God damnit.
Boston has two more games played and are only a point ahead of the Leafs, there's still hope!
Can't wait for the late season collapse.

Apparently Vanek owed like one million dollars in that betting ring in New York that was reported in the off season.
Sounds like all of it was on football, but wow. Almost a million dollars? Damn.
