Episode 4: Dr. Chuck and the Sloth's Visual Bleep Bloops, aka Total Cluster Puck
Manage episode 514952073 series 3693143
Dr. Dan and Jesse explore Dan's first attempt at analysis: a Principal Component Analysis based on the previous five years of NHL data from Moneypuck, sorted by their home league's scoring settings. Turns out, McDavid and MacKinnon are great! But so are Zack Werenski, Mackenzie Weegar, and Tom Wilson.
The guys talk about the effectiveness of PCA as a Fantasy hockey tool, surprising revelations from the data, and lament Jesse's continued inability to trade Alex Ovechkin.
