It’s early in the NHL season, which means small sample sizes abound. That makes it tougher to do any real analysis on what’s happened, so I took a lot of user feedback and decided to write up how to use the new “KPI Scorecard” that I’ve been posting on Twitter after each game.
In the business world, “KPI” stands for “key performance indicator.” In other words, metrics that best measure the success of a business objective or initiative over time. Crossing this idea over into hockey, I decided to aggregate a few different important metrics by displaying them on this scorecard.
