An Introduction

Behind the Net is a great site for hockey fans. I've had this page bookmarked for months now in the hope that I could delve into advanced hockey statistics. I haven't had the chance, so I created this blog to inspire me to work through some of these modern hockey statistics. I am somewhat familiar with advanced baseball stats, but I have always been more of a hockey fan. My goal is to learn to understand and apply these statistics to the local NHL team, but I don't want to be limited geographically. I would also like to help others to understand as I learn.
