So many discussions veer off into the realm of why stats are wrong/incomplete or why you should use stats and what not. Figured it would be good to eventually move them into this thread. Also could serve as a good resource for people wanting to learn more about it.
Below are some helpful links:
http://stats.hockeyanalysis.com/index.php
Great website that has player and team data going back through 2007 on a variety of "advanced" stats, such as Fenwick, Corsi, Shots, Goals, Per Minute Production, etc. across all manpower and score situations.
http://corsica.hockey/
Similar concept to the previous link, but offers some additional information such as scoring chance data, expected goals data and more.
http://www.hockey-reference.com/play-index/psl_finder.cgi
Hockey reference play index allows you to parse out leaders in various statistics through specific time frames and subject to various criteria. For example, a list of players with the best PPG in the NHL from 2007 to 2014 with a minimum of 400 games played?

NHL.com's stat database has become more robust. You can search certain advanced stats, and also provide games played requirements as well as set start and end points for the time frames you want to search. For instance, who has the best faceoff percentage in the NHL since January 5th with at least 10 games played (not that you would ever want or need that specific stat)?
Some seminal articles on stats:
