Description

In this special edition of The Stick Blade Podcast, we talk to David and Daniel Radke about the future of Hockey's analytics and what might be in the future. They took the NHL's tracking data collected from the chips placed in jerseys and pucks from the Tampa Bay Lightning/Dallas Stars Stanley Cup finals and created several new metrics on how to analyze players and look at players using a whole new set of data. With teams looking to short-cut rebuilds and speed up development, analytics like this will be crucial in the future to not just teams, but the world of sports gambling, fantasy leagues, etc. Be sure to check out their work and give them some love.
