Anayltics.
It's becominf common place in all sports. Loooking past the "eye test", the intent of anayltics is to give a deep dive into what we are seeing. Is it accurate? How can it be improved?
Our guest today helps us unpack that. Sean, Heidi, and I are joined by Sean Tierney. He writes for @HockeyGraphs, @TheathleticTO & @TheAthleticChi. He also charts on tableau and contributes to TSN Analytics.
Topics we cover include;
-Why he got into Anayltics?
-The WAR (Wins above Replacement)
-Corsi
-Anayltics and the "Grumpy Old Men"
-Comparisons to other sports
-Stats that anayltics need to dive in more
