My name is Corey Sznajder and this is my NHL microstat tracking project. This started with tracking scoring chances, zone entries & zone exits for the Carolina Hurricanes on my old blog, Shutdown Line. Since then, it has grown to a league-wide project. I did the entire NHL season in 2013-14, and have been tracking this data publicly since the 2016-17 season.

The project has grown so much since then. Both the quality and presentation of the data have improved dramatically. Over 3,000 games have been tracked and we have interactive tools such as player cards & team tables available for subscribers on Tableau. More stats have also been added to the database to bring more detail & context to the baseline level stats like passing plays & zone entries. I have a few full-82 game seasons tracked for some teams but I usually end up with about 30-50 games per team by the end of the year, which is where the data usually stabilizes. Ideally, I'd like 82 games for every team but it's difficult to do with this being a one-person project & only so many hours I can devote to it. More info on this project and my work can be found on my website, allthreezones.com

A glossary & FAQ of the stats I track can all be found there, as well as the Tableau pages.
