Half the kids drafted in this range have tenacious, plays with an edge, tough to play against, in your face.  We get a 150 lbs finesse kid that had 1 assist in 22 games. Sigh.

Analytics are not some monolith of consensus information 

Indeed.

Do you see analytics reflected in these picks

The difference between Twitter Charts Guys (who are not actually analytical in any way) and guys like Ventura and Karmanos is that they know analytics are a part of the greater evaluation and team building. Can we stop acting like we understand how analytics is used and applied? Show me the charts that show you every single Tampa Bay player that plays an important role is an analytic success.

I don't know what on God's green earth you mean by analytics. I'm quite sure the Sabres used metrics, numbers, regressions, and more that are not publicly available

I'm feeling confident the return on Eichel and Sam will include several C prospects.  

Has to be I think. KA hasn't taken a C with even..NHL potential in his first 7 selections as GM so far

Yeah, I'm sure they did too. They're interpretation of them seems to go against the consensus.

This kid plays fewer than 82 games as a Sabre.  I'll put a lunch bet or a $10 charity bet on it against the first taker.

I will take that

You know what else would have went against consensus? Passing on Owen Power.

His J20 is fine for a 17 year old. 

You shouldn't be looking at that.  You're a grown man, and you're married.

The analytics consensus? I don't think so

There is a vast misunderstanding about what the word analytics means and how it applies to evaluating players. I don’t understand it fully either so we’re all in the same boat.

Lol I mean I won't pretend I graduated with a degree in stats but the projections posted on here about NHL star abilities and Power lower than others. End all be all? No. Still, just feels like we're drafting the same we've been drafting for years.
