If 'fancy stats' / hockey analytics are truly useful, why didn't anyone predict how well Vegas would do?

@Shift-4 yes and that's my go-to example for why it's a bad idea to give the analytics crew the final decision.

a well constructed system of play
suitable for the player talent on a team
is not assessed or addressed by analytics
the right system for the cast of players
helped them to shine and achieve better their potential
it is a bit of an art, and less a science, to be able to see
what best works for the group of players assembled as your team
analytics is more a reporting of performance
it does not assist in increasing or enhancing performance
and it not really a predictive tool
unless the same circumstances are present for the same player being assessed moving forward
