Does Defense Really Win Championships?

I was in London this week for my spring break and, unfortunately, I came back with an unwanted souvenir, a minor cold. This week's analysis is going to be much shorter than usual as I am not feeling well enough to do an in-depth post. As I said in my first post, I wish to find a relationship between statistics and success, specifically, and most obviously, in the playoffs.

I'm back!

Hello, After a long time off, I am returning to my weekly blog posts. I am finished with school, so I'm excited to take a deep dive into the data of the NHL playoffs and, most importantly, as a Rangers fan, the NHL draft. I will post later this week, so please continue to follow this blog. I greatly appreciate your taking the time to read my content. Lastly, I want to congratulate Alex Ovechkin on winning his first Stanley Cup. His reaction is why I love this amazing sport. Best, Jonathan
