Hockey DB

[CaptainShark]

Personally I like how I can click the photos and bring up past headshots.

I never knew. Have been on hockey do a million times, never ever noticed.

Rapid-fire click Getzlaf's portrait

May I suggest Brent Burns?

HockeyDB requires an overhaul

Steve Yzerman is awesome.

EDIT: jagr is also very awesome.

Hank Zetterberg looks almost identical on every shot. Ageless wonder

 

[CaptainShark]

Marleau should never ever smile while taking a picture

Hockeyreference is the top site in my opinon

Great for in depth info, I go there if I need to more than a very simple stat line

Hockeydb is just nice and easy if I just want to quickly look up a certain players production

I go to Eliteprospects often for prospect stat info since it goes so far back into midget and high school data, and college is usually updated faster there

You can kind of use all three to your advantage, they all offer different use cases. I used db the most though

I think it's cool how they just don't include goalie stats for each respective draft class.

Hockeydb was my go to hockey stats site forever but about a year ago I got labeled as a possible bot because I guess I used the site too much researching retro players for EA NHL rosters I was working on so now every time I try to use the site I have to do one of those "click all the squares containing cars" tests to prove to a computer that I'm a human.

Hockeyreference is my new jam that site is awesome.

Same crap happens to me, sooo annoying, just gave up on hockeydb...

That's not an individual accomplishment

Hence 'underneath' instead of 'with' the awards, as in a whole new section. Did you even read the full text or did you give up part way through?

Better then getting stats out of the Tuesday Sun! Those were the days lol

I can go you one better (or worse).
I was born in Canada but my family moved to New Zealand when I was a kid. Before the internet existed I used to go to the library and read the U.S newspapers in order to get the box scores.

Hockey db for simple stuff. And for trade history.

Elite prospects for stats of less prominent leagues, especially European ones.

Hockey reference for more complex stats, like point shares, era adjusted. Also for their play index season finder.

Quant hockey for the occasional lookup of stats by province or country.

I've been using this website for what feels like my whole life, and I've never known this.


Also HOCKEYDB is the GOAT site. None of those others even come close.

Eliteprospects also plagiarizes the other sites (which I know Ralph has found when he makes a mistake and it propagates to that site).

Probably doesn't matter to the end users, but it should.

Do you know which site have original data? My guess is h-r does?

My only wishlist from h-r would be a more throughout database from pre-consolidation leagues, but since it's free can't complain too much.

I have most of this on an excel sheet anyway, but I hate excel and prefer just going online.

 

[irunthepeg]

Got quite a few responses. This is my fave.

 

[Rants Mulliniks]

Jeebus! Jagr has one where he looks like he has a simultaneous beefeater hat and mullet!!

HockeyDB has original data - I know through SIHR that Ralph spends quite a bit of own money tracking down obscure league media guides and programs.

Hockey-Reference is probably original data as well (from what I know of the team and how they operate) - they don't go as deep as HockeyDB, though.

Great site, clean and simple...but you would think they would list the Stanley cup wins underneath or with the awards sections, kind of annoying to always go to a different site like wiki to get that info.

That's quite a good suggestion, being able to tell how many Cups a player has won right from their page. You should suggest it if you haven't already. That would be a useful addition. They could even do something simple like put an asterisk next to the team name when that team has won the Cup in that season or something like that.
