A Primer On NHL Analytics And How Experts Use Them (Part 2)

Part one explored how analytics can detail information about offensive and defensive production, predict scoring, demonstrate an individual player’s value, how to build a penalty kill, build narratives and provide supporting evidence for those narratives, explain what happened on the ice, and create visual models that can be used in place of charts full of numbers.
