@RyanMaScouting @T2TProspects @mattdolloff I get it. Iโ€™m just not buying the analysisโ€ฆan โ€œinvolvementโ€ and โ€œefficiencyโ€ scoreโ€ฆhaving data to input to generate an objective output seems incongruent.

Many were quick to write Dean Letourneau off after registering only 3 points as a freshman. However, he has shown outstanding year-over-year growth and is now one of the best forwards in all of college hockey! #NHLBruins

Going forward, now that I have access to the @T2TProspects accounts, all cards are going to be posted on there outside of a few special occasions so make sure to follow! For #Flames Potter & Wyttenbach, both elite D+1 seasons The model prefers Potterโ€™s all around skillset but Wyttenbachโ€™s productivity is hard to deny and ultimately gives him the slight edge in overall final rankings

@RyanMaScouting Are #Flames prospects Ethan Wyttenbach and Cullen Potter graded any differently? They are from the same draft class, also in the NCAA.

#Flames fans are going to love this card Reschny was a huge part of NoDaks team & the player comps speak for themselves #SeaKraken Beniers #CBJ Johnson #Smashville Stiga #TexasHockey Martino #TusksUp Ludtke The high end comps are as good as they getโ€ฆ heโ€™s going to be so good
Tape2Tape Prospects@T2TProspects

Cole Reschny has made a ton of noise in his freshman year at NoDak, leading the team in scoring! Reschny showed a great playmaking dimension to his game and was also highly efficient when shooting the puck! #Flames

Missed this guy by 2 picksโ€ฆ Heard rumblings around the draft that #LeafsForever really liked him Chicago Steel connection with Marlies GM Ryan Hardyโ€ฆ he went to the #GoHabsGo & Toronto traded down after that for Danford The rest, as they say, is history Sick to my stomach
Tape2Tape Prospects@T2TProspects

Many were surprised to see Michael Hage snubbed as a Hobey Baker finalist, and his card backs up the eye test. He has nearly nothing left to prove at the NCAA level and could be a top-six piece for the #GoHabsGo for a long time!

@RyanMaScouting Chernyshov should hurt more because he was actually available to draft. And he could be helping the leafs now He was easily the best player available. Danford still should be decent.

@Bruins4Life213 @Mike556553251 @T2TProspects @mattdolloff Yeah, the source data frequently updates after every game but unfortunately the heights and weights arenโ€™t updated very frequently so all players are usually an inch or so shorter and their weights are usually off by a bit as well.

I fail to see the point of this commentโ€ฆ we use underlying tracking data from throughout the year and apply our model to it in order to generate these scores that are broad in nature so theyโ€™re more easily digestible for average fansโ€ฆ Itโ€™s not like we went into MS paint and randomly pulled numbers outโ€ฆ he played well this year, the model recognized that he played well so his card looked goodโ€ฆ

@fvc022 @T2TProspects We have Verhoeff, but youโ€™ll have to wait on his cards for when draft season rolls around ๐Ÿ˜‰ I do have a few cards posted of the draft year guy on my Substack alongside my scouting report deep dives, but it wonโ€™t have any of the big names

@fvc022 @T2TProspects I think Nick is unfortunately too old for the cards this year ๐Ÿ˜” The model only goes up to D+3 seasons and I think Nick is in his D+4 now

I would say definitely more so the second one. Theyโ€™re similar players at this current stage in terms of impact, but McKenna we expect to be better in the long run because of development. The model is meant primarily to gage current on ice impact and then prioritizing/ordering similar impacts by assigning higher value to younger players

@RyanMaScouting @JamesConnelly37 @fellachance @T2TProspects So should I assume that Hage and Mckenna are projected the same impact at any unknown standardised age (let's say they're both 27) as of TODAY or should I understand that they're evaluated at their own rspctv age, therefore Mckenna being superior because we expect progression?

@RyanMaScouting @JamesConnelly37 @fellachance @T2TProspects Wait maybe I'm not understanding, wouldn't it be if they both stepped on the ice tonight, but they would be at an "X" standardised age projection of themselves? Because then wouldn't age be factored in twice? :Mckenna's age bumps him up AND he'll get better between now and Hage?

@Loubrass2 @JamesConnelly37 @fellachance @T2TProspects In terms of overall impact with everything taken into account, yes, the model regards both Hage and McKenna very similarly if they were to both step on the ice for a game tonight Even if the strengths and weaknesses will differ, theyโ€™re both elite college players at this stage

@RyanMaScouting @JamesConnelly37 @fellachance @T2TProspects Which should absolutely be accounted for, you're right, they're almost 2 years and 1 NCAA season apart, it matters. But then that also means your model likes Michael Hage almost as much as Gavin Mckenna, while considering evrt, am I right? ๐Ÿ‘€ That's all I'm willing to hear ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜‰.

100%! Thank YOU for the questions. We love getting people interested in the cards, and trying to understand the inner logic behind them Weโ€™ve put a lot of effort into trying to mold the underlaying data so that it can create a comprehensive overall picture of players and their relative impact against their peers and adding historical context outside of the traditional counting stats

This is a great question! We do take into account TOI, role, and deployment in our grading! All stats are standardized to per/60 so Hageโ€™s lower TOI means he actually benefits in a lot of the raw scores As a result we actually tend to give slight bonuses to players that play more as it showcases their role and importance to their team, as well as boosts for players that play a more heavy defensive zone deployment
Louhabs1909@Loubrass2

@JamesConnelly37 @fellachance @T2TProspects Do you have Michael Hage's calculated percentile beyond just knowing that he's comprised between [99;100[? I'd be VERY interested. And also, since TOI data has just recently started getting tracked for NCAA players, are there attempts at standardising productions for TOI?
