The Stat Cast

Some of us just like to enjoy a beverage and watch a Dallas Stars game – and that's just fine. But others want to understand how players affect the game and the team around them...and that's where math comes in.
For this edition of Stargazing, D Magazine's David Castillo – who's also a longtime DBD contributor – sat down with Wes Lawrence to take the fear out of #fancystats. In this episode, they discuss:

how stats like Corsi and Wins Above Replacement affect a team's makeup,
<li>what coaches may see in that player you hate (or love),</li>

<li>why analysis and intuition can, and should, work hand in hand,</li>

<li>and what's on the horizon for the quant crowd.</li>
