Frozen Tools Forensics

The first round of the playoffs is officially wrapped, and it is time to turn our attention, at long last, to the playoff series. There are many places to get the play-by-plays, the current takes and storylines, but this is not it. We are going to dive into this extra set of games and see [...]

In keeping with our year in review theme, I want to return to a series I started back in August attempting to predict some players on the cusp of a breakout for 22-23. The premise was based on an article posted in June that attempted to define a breakout threshold in the NHL. The brief [...]
