Super excited to share my project from the 2026 HALO Hackathon, Rating Forecheckers Through Spatial Tree Boosting. This was my first time working with SportLogiq data it was really interesting to see the private data side. #HockeyHALO2026 medium.com/@elawing1018/rati…

Author’s Note: This was my submission for the 2026 HALO Hackathon, my first time using SportLogiq’s tracking data.

Dylan Guenther is currently tied for the league lead in shot attempts and is still getting to his usual spot. Also, I just noticed that he shot an insane 16% at 5v5 last year
Evan Lawing@EDLAnalyticsSep 10
I think Dylan Guenther can become a 50-goal scorer at some point in his career. Enjoy this animation of his first 40-goal season in 2025-26. Another one of the spot-up shooters with his spot on the left circle and the net-front like most other forwards

Interesting that he talks about not trusting small sample sizes (great to hear he understands that) but then kinda seems to have +/- and xGF% in similar regards. There’s so much variance in +/- vs xGF% based on defense and goalie that I feel like they tie together logically

Jeff Blashill was very candidly sharing some info on internal stats and what does and doesn't have value. Good stuff here...

The sample size for xGF% is so much larger since it tracks each chance vs. the number of goals is so much lower for each player

If a beer leaguer were put on an NHL roster, would they have the most points with Kucherov on their line or another player? I would think Kucherov would be able to create the most goals and 2nd assists for the beer leaguer. Beer leaguer wouldn’t be able to keep up with McDavid

From the #Gr8:
My family and I decided this summer that this will be my final year in the NHL. I love this game so much, but I know in my heart it’s the right decision. It was important for me to make this announcement before our first home game, so I have the chance to thank all the people around the game, everyone who has been so important to me and my family and helped me through good times and tough losses. I wouldn’t have been able to achieve everything I have in my life without them. I am excited about this season with my teammates, and we will do everything we can to make this year special. I am going to enjoy every moment with my family, my boys, our fans and everyone who has been part of my hockey career. See you Wednesday, babes!

Somehow I hadn't posted the Pavel Dorofeyev shot attempt animation yet. He's one of those players who has their spots that they love and will just let it fly. Hopefully the Rangers will be able to get it to him on that shooter's right side of the ice to maximize his finishing

The Minnesota Wild kick off their season tonight. Matt Boldy is looking to follow up his impressive 40-goal season, where he showed he could shoot from pretty much anywhere on the ice
