So recently watched Moneyball... great movie. From what I
understood, and maybe I got it wrong, but they tried to go after the guys with
the most on bases. Get the most guys on base and you will win. Screw everything
else, just get on base (from the movie, the book goes into crazy more detail).
So I thought I would do that with the West conference (the
East will come next) ... but then it just got out of hand.
So, further below, is every player on your west coast
playoff team roster’s playoff all-time playoff statistics. Make what you will
with it. I’m not going to analyze them.
But first, the “Moneyball” analogy. Going simply by goals
scored, the winner of the west coast is (Hold your breath it’s going to be a
huge surprise) oh-shit it’s Detroit (wtf right!?). They have over 1500 goals!
491 more than second place San Jose!
But, this is a real sport and not baseball. This probably
means absolutely nothing. Just like having the Predators leading the way in
Playoff Goals per playoff games played also probably means nothing.
Anyway ... enough from me, venture into the statistics at
your own will.
