still pretty new to the whole analytics thing in terms of learning where to get data from, who's reliable and such (all I know is... not NHL.com lmao) but these guys are going to be tracking forechecking data this season which could give some interesting insights in what tactics can force what situations.

Not sure if this has been done anywhere else? I haven't seen anything from a quick Google outside of more qualitative stuff

Fucking hell babs, taking Griffith out and putting in Sosh fuck
I'd like to see Sosh-Holland-Griffith or some other variation that doesn't involve fucking Matt Martin and Ben Smith.

Oh hey, it's November now, which means the Leafs no longer have top waiver priority. That honor now goes to the Yotes. AROOOOOOOOOOOOO

Frank Corrado is not free. False alarm!
 
Friedman on Habs looking for a Defenceman
Two years ago, looking to upgrade his blue line, Montreal GM Marc Bergevin traded for Sergei Gonchar in early November. He’s looking again, even before Mikhail Sergachev was sent back to junior. According to a couple of executives, the problem is while there are some available, they aren’t really top four guys — since Anaheim is determined to keep Cam Fowler and Winnipeg’s asking a huge price for Jacob Trouba. So, teams aren’t certain what’s out there is an upgrade.

I guess we have to wait at the trade deadline for this one

Maybe we can finally trick a GM into trading for Emelin

I wonder if Winnipeg's going to hold out on Trouba until Dec 1st and wait until he cracks.

Probably, and he probably will.

That being said, as McKenzie and Dreger have alluded to in the past the expectation from a few GMs who've sniffed around is that at this point Trouba's "roster/usage concerns" coincidentally extend to all the Canadian cities. I mean, teams.

Apparently the Canucks are sponsoring this year's Vancouver Hockey Analytics Conference. That's pretty sweet! They're volunteering Rogers Arena for the event.

Matthews has 66% of his goals in his first game. He's played another 8 since then.

Bust. Nylander is the true star.
 
So, according to Rogers:

Leafs v Jets - EPIC RIVALRY
Oilers v Leafs - THE GAME LEAFS FANS HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR, EPICLY
