  • An Introductory Guide to Advanced Hockey Stats
    SHOT METRICS: AN INTRODUCTORY GUIDE TO ADVANCED HOCKEY STATS by Mike McLaughlin Patrick McLaughlin July 2013 Copyright c Left Wing Lock, Inc. 2013 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT A primary goal of analysis in hockey and fantasy hockey is the ability to use statistics to accurately project the future performance of individual players and teams. Traditional hockey statistics (goals, assists, +/-, etc.) are limited in their ability to achieve this goal, due in large part to their non-repeatability. One alternative approach to hockey analysis would use puck possession as its fundamental metric. That is, if a player or team is dominant, that dominance should be reflected in the amount of time in which they possess the puck. Unfortunately, the NHL does not track nor publish data related to puck possession. In spite of this lack of data, there are methods that can be used to track puck possession. The purpose of this document is to introduce hockey fans (and fantasy hockey managers) to the topic of Shot Metrics. Briefly, Shot Metrics involves the use of NHL shot data to analyze individual players and teams. The shot data is used as a proxy for puck possession. Essentially, teams that are able to shoot the puck more often are doing so because they are more frequently in possession of the puck. It turns out that teams that are able to consistently outshoot their opponents typically end up winning games and performing well in the playoffs [1]. Thus, shot data can play an integral role in the way the game of hockey is analyzed.

  • Expect the Expected: Approximating the Caliber of Possession Using Shot Quality
    Expect the Expected: Approximating the Caliber of Possession Using Shot Quality James McCorriston Connor Reed [email protected] [email protected] Abstract The NHL has experienced rapid growth in analytical metrics and advanced statistics in recent years. While popular statistics like Fenwick and Corsi act as good approximations for puck possession, they are limited in what they tell about scoring opportunities as they do not consider shot quality. In this study, we consider shot distance as an approximation of shot quality, and we combine Fenwick and NHL play-by-play shot distance data to develop a series of new statistics: Expected Goals (xGoals), Expected Differential (xDiff), and Goals-Above-Expected (GAE) for skaters, as well as Expected Save Percentage (xSv%) and Adjusted Save Percentage for goaltenders. As a basis for these new metrics, we first show that shot distance serves as a good approximation for shot quality, and that we can reverse-engineer scoring probabilities for each shot taken by a player. The concept of approximating shot quality is extended to analyze the performance of players, teams, and goaltenders. Using NHL play-by-play data from the 2007-08 season to the 2014-15 season, we show that xGoals are the best indicator of how many goals a player should be scoring, and we show that it stays more consistent for an individual from year-to-year than other comparable statistics. Finally, we show that on a single-game resolution, xGoals are the best indicator for which team should have won a particular game. The novel set of metrics introduced in this paper offer a more reliable and indicative tool for assessing the ability of skaters, goaltenders, and teams and provides a new basis for analyzing the game of professional hockey.

  • Product Recall Notice for 'Shot Quality'
    Product Recall Notice for ‘Shot Quality’ Data quality problems with the measurement of the quality of a hockey team’s shots taken and allowed Copyright Alan Ryder, 2007 Hockey Analytics www.HockeyAnalytics.com Product Recall Notice for Shot Quality 2 Introduction In 2004 I outlined a method for the measurement of “Shot Quality” 1. This paper presents a cautionary note on the calculation of shot quality. Several individuals have enhanced my approach, or expressed the outcome differently, but the fundamental method to determine shot quality remains unchanged: 1. For each shot taken/allowed, collect the data concerning circumstances (e.g. shot distance, shot type, situation, rebound, etc) and outcome (goal, save). 2. Build a model of goal probabilities that relies on the circumstance. Current best practice is that of Ken Krzywicki involving binary logistic regression techniques 2. I now use a slight variation on that theme that ensures that the model reproduces the actual number of goals for each shot type and situation. 3. For each shot apply the model to the shot data to determine its goal probability. 4. Expected Goals: EG = the sum of the goal probabilities for each shot for a given team. 5. Neutralize the variation in shots on goal by calculating Normalized Expected Goals: NEG = EG x Shots< / Shots (Shots< = League Average Shots For/Against). 6. Shot Quality: SQ = NEG / GA< (GA< = League Average Goals For/Against). I have called the result SQA for shots against and SQF for shots for . I normally talk about a team’s shot overall quality but one can determine shot quality any subset of its total shots (e.g.
