BACK TO PANDASCORES
My current weighting system divides forwards into groups of three and defencemen into groups of two. Top line forwards and top pairing defencemen (as per PandaScores) are weighted 4, while bottom line and pairing pairing are weighted 1 and 2 respectively.
This means that a top line player is weighted four times more than a bottom line player.
But if we look at ice time, that's just not true. The average first liner players around 19 minutes a game while a fourth line is around 12 minutes.
I think I'll experiment to see if I like the weighting based on numbers like 19/60 and 12/60 instead of 4 and 1.
