  • Turnbull Hockey Pool For
    Turnbull Hockey Pool for Each year, Turnbull students participate in several fundraising initiatives, which we promote as a way to develop a sense of community, leadership and social responsibility within the students. Last year's grade 7 and 8 students put forth a great deal of effort campaigning friends and family members to join Turnbull's annual NHL hockey pool, raising a total of $1750 for a charity of their choice (the United Way). This year's group has decided to run the hockey pool for the benefit of Help Lesotho, an international development organization working in the AIDS-ravaged country of Lesotho in southern Africa. From www.helplesotho.org "Help Lesotho’s programs foster hope and motivation in those who are most in need: orphans, vulnerable children, at-risk youth and grandmothers. Our work targets root causes and community priorities, including literacy, youth leadership training, school twinning, child sponsorship and gender programming. Help Lesotho is an effective, sustainable organization that is working at the grass-roots level to support the next generation of leaders in Lesotho." Your participation in this year's NHL hockey pool is very much appreciated. We believe it will provide students and their friends and families an opportunity to have fun together while giving back to their community by raising awareness and funds for a great cause. Prizes: > Grand Prize awarded to contestant whose team accumulates the most points over the regular NHL season = 10" Samsung Galaxy Tablet > Monthly Prizes awarded to the contestants whose teams accumulate the most points over each designated period (see website) = Two Movie Passes How it Works: > Everyone in the community is welcome to join in on the fun.

  • Player Pairs Valuation in Ice Hockey
    Player pairs valuation in ice hockey Dennis Ljung Niklas Carlsson Patrick Lambrix Link¨opingUniversity, Sweden Abstract. To overcome the shortcomings of simple metrics for evalu- ating player performance, recent works have introduced more advanced metrics that take into account the context of the players' actions and per- form look-ahead. However, as ice hockey is a team sport, knowing about individual ratings is not enough and coaches want to identify players that play particularly well together. In this paper we therefore extend earlier work for evaluating the performance of players to the related problem of evaluating the performance of player pairs. We experiment with data from seven NHL seasons, discuss the top pairs, and present analyses and insights based on both the absolute and relative ice time together. Keywords: Sports analytics · Data mining · Player valuation. 1 Introduction In the field of sports analytics, many works focus on evaluating the performance of players. A commonly used method to do this is to attribute values to the different actions that players perform and sum up these values every time a player performs these actions. These summary statistics can be computed over, for instance, games or seasons. In ice hockey, common summary metrics include the number of goals, assists, points (assists + goals) and the plus-minus statistics (+/-), in which 1 is added when the player is on the ice when the player's team scores (during even strength play) and 1 is subtracted when the opposing team scores (during even strength). More advanced measures are, for instance, Corsi and Fenwick1. However, these metrics do not capture the context of player actions and the impact they have on the outcome of later actions.

  • What Is the Value of an Action in Ice Hockey? Learning a Q-Function for the NHL
    What is the Value of an Action in Ice Hockey? Learning a Q-function for the NHL Oliver Schulte, Zeyu Zhao, and Kurt Routley Simon Fraser University, Burnaby, BC, Canada {oschulte}@cs.sfu.ca Abstract. Recent work has applied the Markov Game formalism from AI to model game dynamics for ice hockey, using a large state space. Dy- namic programming is used to learn action-value functions that quantify the impact of actions on goal scoring. Learning is based on a massive dataset that contains over 2.8M events in the National Hockey League. As an application of the Markov model, we use the learned action val- ues to measure the impact of player actions on goal scoring. Players are ranked according to the aggregate goal impact of their actions. We show that this ranking is consistent across across seasons, and compare it with previous player metrics, such as plus-minus and total points. 1 Introduction This paper describes and extends a recent approach to sports analytics that applies advanced concepts from Artificial Intelligence to model game dynamics. This approach models game dynamics using Markov games [4], a multi-agent extension of Markov Decision Processes. A Markov game model can answer a fundamental question about a sport: Which actions contribute to winning in what situation? We approach this question for ice hockey by learning an action-value func- tion, or Q-function, for a Markov game model of the National Hockey League (NHL). In reinforcement learning (RL) notation, the expression Q(s; a) denotes the expected reward of taking action a in state s.
