One of the wildest stats in sports:

This is the 46TH CONSECUTIVE SEASON in which a former teammate of Jaromir Jagr has appeared in the Stanley Cup Final.

This year, it's Golden Knights defenseman Rasmus Andersson, who played with Jágr in Calgary in 2017-18.

Over the last couple months, we've been grinding away at some LB-Hockey improvements so here's a thread going over all the new stuff 🧵

First, we added 2025-26 data to our xG model fitting. All of our tools, especially the Steals & Chokes Log, are greatly benefitting from this!

I'm not sure that people understand what the word "Permanent" means. Years ago, I had the same concerns about the word "Unique".

This bodes poorly for our collective future.

Alexander Radulov at 39 years old is now a 3-time Gagarin Cup Champion.

@100degreehockey Pretty sure it was 100+ in Palm Desert last Friday.

[Mark D Zimmerman @HitZIceSTAT]

@seanshapiro Wow. Bring this vibe to DOPS for head shots.

@pwilliamsAHL Hellberg was more 1B to Remi Poirier's 1A.

@JFreshHockey Have to think moving from man to man to the switching D under a new coach is a big cause.

Remember, Harley spent an AHL year learning to defend, and now is adjusting to something new. D doesn't come naturally to him, but he's smart. Off season, he works on reads and gets better

[Mark D Zimmerman @HitZIceSTAT]

@JuroKral Predictable result when you focus all of your energy to accomplish one thing (beat Dallas), only to find that once you do that, there are entirely different challenges you need to overcome that require adaptability.

Oh well. Sorry Wild. Good luck moving forward.

@JFreshHockey Stephen Johns probably isn't your best example.

[Mark D Zimmerman @HitZIceSTAT]

@RobertTiffin I mean, they really did it in 2 periods.

[Mark D Zimmerman @HitZIceSTAT]

Hey @FloHockey. Not ideal just ending the replay of the Texas/Chicago game in the middle of the first overtime.

Mostly love what you've done for non-NHL coverage, but this is amateur hour.

[Mark D Zimmerman @HitZIceSTAT]

@JuroKral I know we haven't talked in a while, but it's amazing how close we are on this.

@100degreehockey Split screen.

[Mark D Zimmerman @HitZIceSTAT]

@JuroKral Bunting was real good with NSH when playing with Evangelista. Everything else is pretty meh.

I'd love to be wrong, but I'm not sure that making a lineup change at this point wouldn't just be change for change sake.

[Mark D Zimmerman @HitZIceSTAT]

Steelheads are down 0-2 to Allen, but getting Hoffman back after a long stint with the AHL San Jose Barracuda changes things significantly for Idaho.

Don't count @Steelheads out just yet. Hoffman has been unstopable in the ECHL this year.

[Idaho Steelheads @Steelheads]

Back from the AHL, we catch up with Brendan Hoffmann ahead of his return to action for the Steelheads in Game 3!

My NHL site is now live!

There are many features that you can't find anywhere and I'm quite proud of this project.

However, I could really use your help spread the word. Please share the link here on Twitter/X, but also on other platforms. It means a lot
