I wanted to take the chance to highlight some of the awesome work that Patrick has done to the site - which has now upgraded from AdvancedHockeyStats.com to HockeyStats.com - and give some updates on what to expect from your subscription in the ne...

Happy Friday all,
Just giving another update on some updates we've made to the AdvancedHockeyStats site in the past week.
New front page: Not the biggest change but we've added the playoff bracket and series odds to the homepage along with links to player and goalie cards.

Happy Friday everyone,
It's been a week since we fully launched AdvancedHockeyStats.com and we really couldn't be happier with the reception and feedback we've received. It's still a work in progress as we work towards adding absolutely all the existing perks + a lot of new ones to the site. Having this platform (and Patrick's coding skills) gives us so, so much more flexibility in terms of what we're able to offer ...

It's been a long time coming, but it's finally here. Patrick and I are excited to launch the official website of the JFreshHockey Patreon, Advanced Hockey Stats!

Patrick's been working on this project for a few months now, and we've launched it in beta mode for $10 subscribers to try out. But now we're ready to release it to everyone.

Hey everyone! The time has finally come. 2024-25 Player Cards are now live!
I deeply appreciate your patience. The reason we waited to put out this data is because we wanted to make absolutely sure that we weren't putting out something premature or misleading because the sample size was too small. As tempting as it often was to rush these out, ultimately I think we made the ri...

As promised, the new player cards are ready to go, with 2024-25 data from the new season being integrated. This is a new set of 742 cards for forwards and defencemen, updating every morning.

Happy (Canadian) Thanksgiving!
I hope everyone is enjoying the start of the 2024-25 NHL season! We'll have plenty of stuff up as teams start to play a few more games (including dashboards, player cards, etc.), but the first step is the Stats Central workbook.
This is an 11-sheet workbook that includes daily-updating ranked stats ranging from xGoal Share to Goalie WAR to Goa...

Hi everyone!
With the playoffs in full swing, here's a new interactive dashboard with five views looking at players' on-ice metrics in the 2024 NHL playoffs! This should be a great way to visualize how players have been performing and include various filters and highlighters to help with analysis.
The graphics included are

Hi everyone!
Hope you're enjoying the playoffs. Hoping to have some stuff up soon for the $10 tier subscribers using the AllThreeZones tracked data from the past three postseasons.
With the end of the 2023-24 season, we now have three full seasons of NHL Edge Tracked Skating and Shooting data. These dashboards let you explore their key indicator metrics, which I have found to have very s...

Hey everyone,
Got another 2023-24 perk today, the popular WAR comparison cards.
Here's the gist:
- Player isolate models need a solid sample of data to function properly and fairly estimate allocate responsibility for on-ice results to individual players. WAR data based on a small sample is not only unreliable for the usual reasons that small-sample data can mislead, but becaus...

As promised, the shiny new player cards are ready to go. The visuals have been freshened up and 2023-24 data from the new season is being integrated. This is a new set of 775 cards for forwards, defencemen, and goaltenders, updating every morning.
A big update to the "historical cards" (which span 2007-08 onwards, since that's the analytics era where our data-set begins) has finally arrived. I've been hearing from people for a while that they wanted to fill in some of the blanks with the previous ones, which went from 2007-08 to 2018-19, and I'm happy to say that this new edition contains every season we have data for.
There are also a few mor...

A quick one today - An interactive Tableau dashboard to explore TopDownHockey's WAR for the 2022-23 NHL season.
This will update every morning and provide some fun ways to check out how the model evaluates the offensive and defensive driving of the league's skaters as well as the overall WAR values.

Hey guys!
Something a little smaller before the fully updated Player Cards and Goalie Cards come at the 50% mark of the season, but one I always enjoy - an interactice Tableau dashboard of lots of ways to look at individual and on-ice shooting as well as on-ice goaltending.
If you follow me on Twitter, you know that I think these stats are super under-utilized as ways of understand...

The perk parade continues with an on-ice stats dashboard for skaters (and goalies, evidently, who Patrick amusingly included in the dataset this season).
This interactive visualization include expected goals for and against, goals for and against, and on-ice shooting and goaltending to see who's benefiting from luck at both ends of the ice. They can be filtered or highlight...
