  • Evaluating Team-Level Pace of Play in Ice Hockey Using Spatio
    Playing Fast Not Loose: Evaluating team-level pace of play in ice hockey using spatio-temporal possession data David Yu*, Christopher Boucher, Luke Bornn, Mehrsan Javan SPORTLOGiQ, Montreal, Quebec, Canada *Email: [email protected] 1. Introduction Pace of play is an important characteristic in ice hockey as well as other team-invasion sports. While in basketball pace has traditionally been defined as the number of possessions per 48 minutes, here we focus on pace and movement within a possession, leveraging the tremendous advancements in the capture of spatio-temporal data in team sports in recent years [1]. While much attention has been focused on speed and distance covered at the player level, spatio-temporal datasets also allow for more granular definitions of team-level pace of play such as measures of the speed between successive events or the speed of a possession as a whole. While ice hockey has always been one of the fastest-moving sports, rule and tactical changes in the past 15 years, such as the removal of the rule limiting 2-line passes and the stricter enforcement of obstruction/holding infractions, have placed further emphasis on pace. At the start of the 2016-17 NHL season, Paul Maurice, head coach of the Winnipeg Jets said: "This game is just so fast now... I've seen fast players and I've seen fast teams, it's the first time I thought we had a fast league. The speed, to me, is the one thing that’s changed more than anything. Our team, and the league as well, is as fast as I’ve ever seen it.” [2] Given the emphasis on pace in hockey in recent years, it is surprising that a recent study found a slight negative correlation between various metrics of forward attacking pace and offensive output such as shots and goals [3].

  • Before They Turn Pro: Superstar Attendance Effects in the Ontario Hockey League (2011-2019)
    Before They Turn Pro: Superstar Attendance Effects in the Ontario Hockey League (2011-2019) Austin Lemieux (0300077748) Major Paper presented to the Department of Economics of the University of Ottawa In partial fulfillment of the requirements of the M.A. Degree Supervisors: Professor Pierre Brochu, Professor Louis-Philippe Morin ECO 6999 Ottawa, Ontario July 20th, 2020 Acknowledgments I would like to thank supervisors Pierre Brochu, and Louis-Philippe Morin for their helpful comments throughout my research. Your guidance and passion helped make this paper both enjoyable to write, and gave me an invaluable learning experience that I truly appreciate. [1] Abstract This paper researches superstar player effects on the announced attendance and the probability of a sellout in the Ontario Hockey League for the 2011-2012 to the 2019-2020 regular seasons. Using a rich panel data set of game-level information, I find superstar players have a significant positive effect on the attendance of regular season games. Superstar players are also found to have an economically significant impact on the probability of a sellout, but this latter result is in most cases statistically insignificant. Finally, the superstar effect for sellouts and attendance are seen to change depending on the definition of a superstar, and also if the superstar plays on the home or away team. [2] 1. INTRODUCTION An intriguing topic in the field of sports economics is the study of attendance demand. Investigating which factors influence fans to attend live sporting events has major implications for sports franchises and leagues, local economies, and also further contributes to our understanding of consumer choice.

    Buffalo Sabres Daily Press Clips October 17, 2019 Henrique scores twice as Anaheim rallies to beat Buffalo 5-2 By Joe Reedy Associated Press October 17, 2019 ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — Ryan Getzlaf and Anaheim’s power-play unit put plenty of work in leading up to Wednesday’s game against the Buffalo Sabres in trying to jump start the unit that had gone scoreless in the first six games. Getzlaf and the Ducks ended up getting their first power-play goal at the most opportune time. His goal midway through the second period ended up being the go-ahead goal for Anaheim in a 5-2 victory. “It is nice to get rewarded and have all the hard work pay off,” Getzlaf said. “Even early in the game, we had some good movement and shots but couldn’t score.” Led by Adam Henrique’s two goals and Jakob Silfverberg’s three points (goal, two assists), Anaheim rallied after Buffalo scored the first two goals. Rickard Rakell had a goal and an assist, and Josh Manson added two assists for Anaheim, which has won its first three home games for the first time in five seasons. John Gibson made 31 saves for his fourth win of the season. Getzlaf gave the Ducks the lead at 9:14 of the second period when he fired a one-timer after a cross-ice pass by Sam Steel. It was their first goal with the man advantage in 18 opportunities, ending their second-longest drought to start a season. “There’s still lots of work to do but it’s a relief to finally get one in there,” Anaheim coach Dallas Eakin said.
