The rise of advanced stats in hockey has taught us that much of what we know about the Dallas Stars is bad. Just look at them: 31st in the NHL in shot share, 24th in expected goals…so how in the world do they just – keep – winning?
Wes and Mark have decided that this year’s Stars were built this way on purpose. And in this edition of Stargazing, they make the case. They discuss the type of shots the team makes, the type they give up, and how the type of game they play means they perhaps don’t get as much credit as they deserve for their own success.
Loading a whole other power-play unit…cats and dogs playing together…mass hysteria! We’re Stargazing, and we endorse it. What about you? Tell us what you’d like to see in the comments.
And if you’re listening, please gift us a rate, review, or share wherever you get your podcasts. We love you. Especially at holiday time.
