Like I said, Nylander is the reverse Samson, much better with short hair
William Nylander said his aunt who cuts his hair is in town, hence the new look. Maybe will change his scoring luck a little too. Said he’s not happy with where game is at yet, but working as hard as he can to get it back up.— Kristen Shilton (@kristen_shilton) December 31, 2018

Playing with Johnsson is sure to get it back up.

I am not trolling you herman but I absolutely don't get the line of reasoning that the least controllable effects a player has on a game are the only results that really matter. In philosophy they call that a "category mistake" (or a basic ontological error).
that second block of bars is a far more stable indicator of the player’s controllable effect on the game.

In philosophy they call that a "category mistake" (or a basic ontological error).Isn't Herman saying that the second group of bars are the more controllable effects, and the ones that matter? i.e. shots share is more controllable than points? Or am I missing something?
That said, I don't think using Corsi is the best way to measure past success. I would not agree that "those results are not indicative of Nylander's true performance". Yes herman, they are. He hasn't provided the offense we expect. Some of it is certainly luck, but you make your own luck in lots of cases.
