As I go down drowning, Maaco, and as the air bubbles pop at the surface, they release these words, over and over again:
"The +/- is not a very good stat....the +/- is not a very good stat....the +/- is not a......"

I find myself returning to the old Monte Python videos, quite regularly!
It's a great therapy for those of us not growing fast enough to keep up with today's insane society!
Monte Python, we see now, was SO ahead of its time, and also so piss-your-pants funny!!
Wrong thread for any detail, but some faves of mine are, "The ministry of silly walks", "Dead Parrot", and yours, "Argument Clinic"!

Ive never said plus/minus was a good stat but it is better than corsi. Rush do you realize that corsi is a similar stat except is uses shots for compared to shots against instead if goals. In the end they are both differential stats. Now ask yourself what's more important, shots attempted differential or goal differential? Pretty easy answer. Who gives a shit how many shots you have directed at the net. So what if throw 50 low quality shots on net every game if you can't score. In the end its the goal differential that matters.
And Corsi is not a possession stat. Its not even close.
