"Corsi. A goalie coach who gained brief notoriety in early 21st century for a now unknown reason" - the Big NHL Plasmapedia, 2130 edition.

The Corsi geeks' problem isn't their object of devotion. Nothing wrong with having a metric to tell you one specific thing occasionally....

Corsi geeks problem is Corsi geeks themselves. Their willingness to attack anyone who dares to watch hockey and humans playing it without...

... necessarily citing their one arbitrary stat and (oh noes!) passing any kind of judgement w/o appealing to it as lazy narrative pushers.

We know the game, we see more in it than you, we love it for what it is. We are not lazy narrative pushers. You are self-important bores.

Anyone who's ever said "lazy narrative" to insult a reporter is someone who wanted to be one but couldn't string two words together #Corsi

So, please, don't push your inferiority complex on us. Go learn some grammar, get some writing talent. Maybe you can push a narrative, too.
