I've been searching online for a better source of NHL game data for the current season, but have been unsuccessful. I currently use the game log data from NHL.com, which is pretty good, but what I really want is a breakdown of activity by period. I know I can collect the data manually if needed, but I'd prefer not to spend time with that unnecessarily. Any help would be appreciated.
I am curious of the push frequencies in Regulation Time for 2-2 and 3-3. (If possible as a function of total line but I belive that it doesnt matter all that much. I also relize that it is influenced by how even the teams are, if anyone got any idea of how big this effect is then feel free to contribute )
I calculated these push frequencies to:
2-2~ 6,5% (for total line around 5-5,5)
3-3~ 5% (for total line around 5,5-6,5
for even teams using poission.
Can anyone tell me how well this correlates to reality?
