Hockey analytics applies statistical analysis and data science to ice hockey, moving beyond traditional counting stats like goals and assists toward measures of a player's overall contribution to their team. Advanced metrics—such as shot-attempt and possession-based measures—help identify players who generate more value than they concede, informing player evaluation, in-game strategy, and roster decisions.
