FHFH 497 || Tuesday Trends || Advanced Stats Primer (Redux)

A rerun of the Evergreen Episode 336 Advanced Stats Primer that dives into Advanced Stats and how we can apply them to Fantasy Hockey when vetting the sustainability of skater performances. 

There would be a few things I would like to add to this if I had the availability to re-record this all over again, namely that xG models take into account the angles of shots, how recent the last play was, and other nuanced pieces of data. I also think I said "Corsi" when I meant Fenwick at one point. Other than that, these methods still hold true today.

Kind of fun to think back a couple years and see how the zeitgeist of the Fantasy Hockey Sphere had Reinhart penciled in for a wild negative regression, and he just keeps on going! 

I hope you were able to use this, even with the aged references and such, feel free to chirp me (TJ) in the discord specifically if you would like to dive into these stats any deeper or how they might apply to players in today's NHL season.
