Excited to share my most recent publication in collaboration with Canadian Nuclear Laboratories and @D_Bingham. What a great group to work with!

Honored to be named a winner of the
2022 Big Data Cup (#BDC2022)! First time entering an analytics competition, definitely not the last!
Huge shout out to my awesome teammates @RR_SportsStats & @PhilTheStats, You both rock!
And we take home the W! #BigDataCup#BDC2022
This was my first time working with sports data, but I'm glad that I had this group (@RR_SportsStats /@thepicapao) to work with! Both of them are superstars.
Thank you once again to all judges, organizers, and anyone else who helped!
Thanks @XwangstfxSunny and @Laurier for the wonderful hosting of @theClassSociety 2022! Talks were great, but catching up with longtime friends and meeting some new faces was a welcome reminder of what I've been missing from the virtual formats.

New day means new gif!
Have a look at our "All Control" metric from our #BigDataCup entry (with @thepicapao and @PhilTheStats ). This describes which areas of the rink are controlled by which team! 🏒📈
Thanks to @HockeyAnalytics for the great data! #BDC2022
