Henrik Zetterberg posted:All the songs tailored to the retractable roof is pretty terrible, but I dont' think it even touches the Disneyification of the Ducks intro. Like I get Disney owns it, but that fuckin Beauty and the Beast candle opening it up for a new franchise? Come on. That looked like something out of The Simpsons with the special song and lyrics dedicated to the Skydome.

With Fisher retiring, Markov going to Russia and Neil and Gionta still unsigned I believe that means the 1998 NHL draft has officially passed into history. RIP 1998 NHL Entry Draft June 27, 1998 - August 3, 2017. It is survived by the 1991 (Jagr), 1995 (Doan/Iginla), 1996 (Chara) and 1997 (Thornton/Marleau) drafts. In paradisum deducant te Angeli

I can't find an example on the site itself. Sure. I'm a fan so I'm happy to pimp his work for everybody here. The Caps season summary for 2016-2017:  Here's a couple of those visualizations up close:   A game summary for May 8 vs the Pens:    And an individual player summary for that game, in this case Backstrom:  And since I'm sure everyone would demand it, a gallery of all of the visualizations for Tom Wilson's 2016-2017 season summary. The only one missing from his is 5v4 shot locations because I'm pretty sure the value for that is null.

It's definitely not for everybody, but it's a lot of information and context very quickly. For example, I can look at the game summary matchup viz and get a good idea of which players were up against whom and which side got the better of it right away.
