NHL Prospect Research help wanted

Post by Manimal »

The work with the Lidas 3.0-rosters is going fine but it takes time (and so do the real life). We did this last year so I am bringing the question back,

Will anyone of you guys be so nice and help out with rating the prospects for each team? Mostly, we go by the rating system from Hockey's future.com but there is also Archibalduk's strength calculator. We have set up a Prospect Research Guide to be used.

From http://www.hockeysfuture.com/ you can find ratings for the teams. Also, set attributes accordingly.

Sometimes NHL.com is a good help for player stats. HockeyDB doesn't show +/- but NHL.com does. Of course, that's only helpful if the player is listed with the team on NHL.com. Some prospects who haven't made the NHL or AHL yet aren't listed. I've found that the individual junior teams will show all of their players' stats for the previous season, including +/-. I can never seem to find +/- for NCAA players though. Do they not track it?

Rain, strep throat and a nagging wife have conspired to keep me locked away in bed with my laptop so when I finish these two teams' prospects, I'll see what else you need. :-D

I did a few teams last year so I'm willing to help out again this year.
I'll take Nashville and LA if you'll have me.

When do you want them?

I've been sifting through a few posts from last year's project with Lidas and could not find the answer to my questions although there were several allusions to a (possible) answer... so here are my questions:

Must I complete all tabs of the spreadsheet (ie. CA_Goalies, CA_Defensemen, CA_Forwards and Player Changes) ?

Secondly, would you prefer that I complete the entire spreadsheet for 'Player Changes' even if certain attributes do not change -or- would you prefer that I input ONLY those attributes that have changed?



Cheers,


Leeman

Those CA_position tabs are for calculating Current Ability. Put all new values in the tab marked player changes.
And No, you don't need to post attributes that do not change. In fact, it is much easier if you only post attributes that changes

Last question...


Are we still rolling back each player's birth year by 3 years?

How hard should I follow the HF/PA conversion table?
Eberle, Hall and Pääjärvi all get -14, I can't see the guys becoming fourth-liners.

No, it's actually four years now. But you don't have to list DOB for existing players
