New Website: NHL Player Graphs
When I look at NHL player stats, I usually see season totals in the same sort of table format. There needs to be more variety. Alternate data representations can tell different stories so I gathered NHL player game stats from the last complete season and graphed them.
Look at Mason Raymond of the Vancouver Canucks. He transitioned from a power play regular in the first half of the season into short handed duty. Additionally, his +/- dipped in the second half of the season - corresponding with less shots and ice time. A definite role change for him. You could also look at Ovechkin whose graphs readily shows he shoots, scores and hits an incredible amount.
There are still lots of stats to add to the site but it is quite useful already. If there is interest, I'll cover more stats and monitor the 2009-2010 season.
