With all of these fancy stats why is it that no one keeps track of how many times that each player hits the post or crossbar?
Now I am only talking about actual scoring opportunities. Their are many times that a player has an off angle shot and hit the outside of the post. Those I do not count.
An example would be player A and player B both scored 20 goals this season. Both players are UFAs. Player A hit 8 posts while player B hit 15 posts this season. Would this stat not tell you that player B would have a better chance to score more goals than player A but just had more bad luck?
I would be curious to see the results as it seems that certain players tend to hit the post a lot compared to others.
