Because people like to vastly overrate the difference in offensive zone starts.If you're going to quote statistics to support your argument you should probably know how those stats are used. I've never seen anyone use on the fly shift starts in a zone deployment discussion, probably because that wouldn't make any sense.
You made the statement
He did not start "70% of his shifts" in the ozone. That statement makes it seem like luke got HUNDREDS more Ozone starts than Dzone starts, when in reality the gap was less than 40.He was -25 with 69 giveaways while starting 70% of his shifts in the OZ.
He started 11.9% (208) of his shifts (1748) in the ozone.
Or about 2.5 times a game he started a shift in the ozone.
Ignoring on the fly shifts vastly skews the numbers.
Does a player getting 20% ozone starts and 10% dzone starts have the same deployment as a guy who gets 10% ozone starts and 5% dzone starts?
