If you need analytics to recognize that Despres for Lovejoy is a bad idea I don't know what to say.
Haha. This pretty much should've ended the thread. Numbers and equations don't mean **** if you don't know how to use them properly. Maybe some of that trade was on data that Karmanos passed down to Guerin and Company, and this a nice way of the organization saying "Jason everyone makes mistakes but going forward you're going to oversee the analytics team rather than do the analytics yourself."
Still I am not sold on its value. For hockey it seems like a gimmick. For baseball it makes more sense because it's more of an individual sport; heavily based in statistics and the players actions can be analyzed in isolation. Plus every time I hear the word analytics this pops into my head.
"... grab the reins man, do some analytics!"
