Last Night In The NHL (2023-01-26)

This post highlights data from yesterday’s NHL games. The idea here is to present the data in a format that allows you to quickly identify skaters of interest in fantasy hockey. Simply scan the data to see if something catches your eye. If not, you can get on with your day and then come back tomorrow to see if the data reveals something more interesting.

Yesterday’s Most Dangerous Shooters
