Shot Quality 2005-06
Shot Quality 2005-06 Revisiting NHL shot quality for the 2005-06 Regular Season Ken Krzywicki – October 2006 Abstract This study revisits previous analyses regarding NHL shot quality. A logistic regression model using 2005-06 regular season data was constructed to predict the probability of a shot on goal going in. The data elements available for study during the 2005-06 regular season were more than those in 2003-04. For example, the NHL made available take- and give-aways, hits, missed shots, etc. that were not published in 2003-04. New rules, such as the elimination of the center red line for offside passes, the goalie “forbidden zone,” redrawn zone dimensions and tighter officiating standards made for a different appearing game than in the past. Far more power play opportunities were available the past season and the goals per game were up. A logistic regression model was chosen to fit the 2005-06 regular season data, with the binary target outcome variable of goal versus save. Five predictor variables—distance, rebound, situation, shot after opponent turnover and shot type—remained in the final model. Each shot on goal was then assigned a predicted probability of going in, i.e. shot quality for. One minus this value was the predicted probability of a save (shot quality against). The model fit the data well, as demonstrated below. Certain inferences about actual performance compared to predicted performance were made and contained herein. Background Prior to building this new model, a model built using 2003-04 regular season data1 was examined and found to be rather predictive when applied to 2005-06.
