  • 1989 NFHL Season Preview
    1989 NFHL Season Preview With the 1970s a distant memory and the 1980s soon to follow, the NFHL is getting ready to kick of its 19th season. Back in 1970, it was announced that a new professional hockey league would be opening its doors, and in 1971 the first league champion was crowned, with the St. Louis Blues bringing home the inaugural SMJ Cup. Back then, there were only 16 franchises, and the regular season was a mere 60 games long. Now, nearly two decades later, and with a vastly different landscape, the NFHL is finish off the 80s and move into their 3rd decade of play. The league has now expanded four different times, up to 24 teams, and the regular season has lengthened by 25%, while the playoffs now require 16 victories, rather than 12. But before we get too far ahead of ourselves thinking about the 1990s, it’s time to break down the upcoming 1989 season, where the Montreal Canadiens seek to become the first ever three-peat champion in NFHL history. 1 New York Islanders 2 Philadelphia Flyers 3 New York Rangers 4 New Jersey Devils 5 Pittsburgh Penguins 6 Washington Capitals The cream of the crop. The Gold Standard. The most dominant team in NFHL history. For nearly two full decades, the New York Islanders, previously the California Golden Seals, have been atop the standings, while bringing home four SMJ Cups. In many ways, 1988 was a pivotal season for the Islanders. It’s no secret that the team has been getting older, and the core has stayed the same for years.

    1 The Prague Spring It was much more than ice hockey, of course. It was a replay of a lost war. It started with an uprising, but it ended with a hockey game. Around 4:30 on the morning of August 21, 1968, a black Volga limousine, its bulbous, large headlights leading the way, sped from the Soviet embassy in Prague toward Czech Communist Party headquarters. Over the years, the black Volga limousine had become mythologized throughout Eastern Europe as the vehicle commonly involved in the abduction of citizens. In the early morning, thisCOPYRIGHTED particular Volga was trailed MATERIAL by a convoy of Soviet tanks. When the convoy arrived at Communist Party headquarters, operations forces sealed the premises and cut off all phone con- tact with the outside world. With that done, a group of Soviet troops armed with machine guns entered the offi ce of Alexander Dubcek, who just six months earlier had been selected as fi rst secretary of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia. CC01.indd01.indd 1 33/27/12/27/12 112:032:03 PPMM 2 Breakaway Although a Soviet colonel had initially entered the offi ce, where Dubcek was meeting with members of his cabinet, it was two plainclothes offi cers—one old, one young—sporting tweed jackets and open-neck shirts who initiated the dialogue as soldiers stood by the door, machine guns in tow. “Comrade Dubcek,” they respectfully addressed him. “You are to come with us straight away.” “Who are you, what do you want?” Dubcek replied. By the time Dubcek and his colleagues were placed under arrest and escorted by KGB agents to a barracks in the Carpathian Mountains in what is now Ukraine, Operation Danube had over- taken Czechoslovakia.

  • On Determining Probability Forecasts from Betting Odds
    On Determining Probability Forecasts from Betting Odds Erik Strumbeljˇ University of Ljubljana, Faculty of Computer and Information Science Trˇzaˇska25, 1000 Ljubljana, Slovenia [email protected] tel: +386-1-4768459 Abstract We show that probabilities determined from betting odds by using Shin's model are more accurate forecasts than probabilities determined with basic normalization or regression models. This applies to both fixed-odds book- makers and the world's largest betting exchange. We also provide empirical evidence that some bookmakers are significantly different sources of proba- bilities in terms of forecasting accuracy and that betting exchange odds are not always the best source. In fact, the use of Shin's model decreases, on average, the advantage of betting exchange odds to the point of reversing the order and significance of some of the differences in accuracy. Therefore, previous findings in favor of betting exchanges that did not rely on Shin's model to determine probabilities from bookmakers should be revisited.

Introduction The scientific literature has been interested in the accuracy of betting odds-based probability forecasts both directly, comparing them to other sources of probability forecasts, and indirectly, through their use in betting strategies and as explanatory variables in statistical models. Probabilities from betting odds are also used as a basis for other economics research, such as betting market efficiency and competitive balance of sports competitions. We do not give a detailed review of all the uses of betting odds.
