We're back at #OTTHAC18 -- @timoseppa, @bmacGTPM, @SchuckersM, and @IneffectiveMath are on a panel discussing hockey modelling. I assume they'll have a catwalk portion at some point. Starting with a talk on WAR
@bmacGTPM: regression-based models that account for on-ice players, control for linemates, strength of opponents, shift adjustments.
@SchuckersM: goal is to isolate impact of specific players while accounting for impacts of others

Good morning,

I made a viz using @ShutdownLine 's incredible data to show defensemen exits vs entry defense.

You can filter for your team here: public.tableau.com/profile/sean.t… Here's a highlighted view of the best at both measures (and the other members of their teams).

Doughty, Karlsson, Subban, Gostisbehere, and McAvoy look very strong. Leddy, Werenski, Manson, and Carlson are great too.
