Sure, and then watch one game in person, shoot the **** with other scouts, head back to the hotel- maybe watch some highlights and call it a night
Again, NHL teams probably legitimately evaluate 10% of all of the available events throughout an NHL season. Not only do they not watch every game, of the games they watch, they miss a ton of off puck plays (10 players on ice at a given time, no way a human can watch everything at one time). And even of the plays they watch and judge, if you have an inept/biased scout evaluating the play, their opinion is likely skewed
I could go into all of the issues with pro scouting (specifically with the Oilers) for a long time, but in summary format, I think the Oilers scouting is completely broken. The owner/POHO/GM all have similar biases about the game, they all think in similar ways. So they hire/keep on scouts that think also the same way. So Chiarelli/Tambo/Lowe would identify the wrong players to go scout, the scouts would then go and likely come away with positive reviews of that flawed player because they have the same train of thought as the GM. It is/was a massive echo chamber and thats why the Oilers have been horrendous at pro scouting
