I have collected my own Scoring chance data all season (missing only 3 games), and now there would be some info to look.
I have a point scale, where:
Goal = 3 points
Quality scoring chance assist, which did became a goal = 3 points
Quality scoring chance = 2 points
Quality scoring chance assist = 2 points
Screen that affected to Goal scored = 2point
Scoring attempt from medium-danger zone = 1 point
Assist = 1 point
Assist for scoring attempt = 1 point
Screen for scoring attempt = 1 point
Faceoff win for scoring attempt = 1 point
Drawn penalty = 1 point
Forecheking play which did lead to Quality chance = 2 point
Forecheking play which did liead to Scoring attempt = 1 point
Key Block which did prevent a scoring chance = 1 point
Good Defensive play which did prevent a scoring chance or did transition the game = 1 point
Penalty kill play, which did clear the DefZone pressure = 1 point
A shot attempt, which was never purposed to be a goal-scoring attempt = 0 points.
This kind of point-system idea was to create somekind of scale, that "who will help the team, one way or another". Not just shot metrics. I also tried to create some easily seen intangibles there. Screens, drawn penalties, Faceoffs, Blocks, Defensive plays, Penallty Killing. Stats that people won't see on point-scoring table.
It also includes a "heatmap" to see better who shoots from high-danger areas and who not. Who passes to high-danger areas and who won't. It's my own eye-test which determines a high-danger shot/pass and regular shot attempt or passing play. I reviews situations multiple times from PVR which one it was, if it was not obvious at first look.
The heatmap is a no-brainer, if you want to create great hockey stats, because Corsi's won't tell that. In Corsi, every shot attempt is valued as equal and that causes noise on that data. My data is not perfect data either, but it is one view to see the game, and Imo, I've put the best way I could to measure players in somewhat easy way. I have shot attempts which are valued from zero to 3 points (goal).
My scoring attempts are mostly "Eye-tested heatmap Fenwick For". I couldn't get a better name for it. But that's what it is. Shot attempts for shot blocker are meaningless to me = 0 point value, so we go with Fenwick. I count blocks, if our guy does it against the opposite team, of course. Preveting and attempt. Heatmapped shots on goal + missed shots on good scoring areas is that drives mostly my system + who will assist those. That's the most interesting stat you can't from anywhere. No one tracks playmakers stats, who did assist the shot or quality chance. But here it is.
Collecting these points doesn't take any extra time for me. I usually watch a LIVE game, replay some situations and I'll be left behind few minutes of the LIVE feed in games. But on infractions and between periods I can catch the missed time up. This has been fun to do, I would usually fall on sleep on commercial breaks if I wouldn't have this stat "job".
I have different kind of separations for those stats. We can do whatever we want, everybody can ask whatever you want and I can give different numbers. I could look only offensive plays (point scoring on my scale) or defensive plays (Blocks, Def playes, PK plays combined) or whatever you want. Who creates most Quality Scoring chances. Who has most/least intangibles plays?
But this is the current rank from games this season. All games are not collected, at least that 0-1 loss against Washington is missing and two other games (one PHI and CGY game).
But my current rank.
1. Anthony Mantha, 9.83 (points/game)
2. Henrik Zetterberg, 9.50 (points(game)
3. Dylan Larkin, 8.57
4. Tomas Vanek 8.48
5. Tomas Tatar 8.45
6. Gustav Nyquist 7.52
That's our TOP6 in all situations. Helm, Nielsen, Abdelkader, Athanasiou, Glendening and Sheahan come next.
Somebody had to take the torch from Datsyuk as being the offensive leader, and I'm very surprised that Mantha has been so great. His scoring chance rate has most quality. Quality shots + Passes to Quality chances. He is slightly above Zetterberg and could regress as the season goes on and game wear comes up. But those numbers are promising. Same level as Datsyuk was at last season. And that's freaking something.
I'll post rest of the stats later today.
I have my own stats also for defencemen, but those offensively weighted. I've implemented BinCookin stats to my own to have also more those negative points, to get better overall results. And my god they match well with eye-test.
