Today over here at Frozen Tools Forensics we are going to be taking a look at some recent changes in draft positions. Given we are well into the drafting season we have some data already as to where players are going and I wanted to use this opportunity to compare that data to average draft [...]
Today on Frozen Tool Forensics we are returning to our shooting percentage conversations from last week. In that article we focused on players who were shooting higher than their career averages and whether or not there were underlying numbers indicating they might continue with that level of production. This week we are flipping the script [...]
Today on Frozen Tool Forensics we are going to dig into shooting percentage. The summer is a time full of articles exploring players who “should be better next season” or are “likely to fall off.” Sometimes this is pure conjecture, but often it is related to shooting percentage.

In Part 1 we spent time examining teams with safe top units and the teams we have at least a season’s worth of data supporting how they are going to divide up the time amongst the players they are currently rostering. That leaves [...]
Today on Frozen Tool Forensics we are taking a slight departure from a stat specific review of players and focusing a bit more on deployment going into 23-23. The Erik Karlsson trade highlights what might just be a recent trend. Teams with a seemingly entrenched top power-play quarterback acquiring a second. Erik Karlsson, John Klingberg, [...]
Now that August is officially here we are going to be transitioning from our roundup related articles (like the MVP and playoff series’) to some more specifically forward looking content.
