Head to head (Elo)

A rating for every contest the data records, moved by who was actually faced.

Every contest the data records, rated by who was faced

An Elo for every contest the play-by-play and shift charts record, played through in order from a start of 1500. Skaters: every 5-on-5 stretch between shift changes is five against five, scored by the share of expected goals during it, each player moving against the average rating of the five he faced (no shot, nothing decided; linemates share credit). Faceoffs: winner against loser on every draw. Special teams: every stretch with unequal skaters is the power-play skaters against the penalty-killers, scored by the PP's expected goals against the league's power-play rate for the same seconds. Shot lanes: every attempt is the shooter against the five defending skaters, through or blocked. Clubs: every game, by result (a shootout win is a win) and by expected-goal share, against the opponent; the club record is the season's results from the shot file and the goals archive. Zone entries and exits, board battles and possession are not events in the league's feed, so there is no rating for them.

Shooter against goalie: every unblocked shot is a contest whose baseline is the shot's expected-goal value (spot, angle, shot type, strength, rebound, rush), so the ratings move only on what the shooter and the goalie added to the chance. A goal past a strong goalie from a poor spot lifts the shooter most; a save on a strong shooter from the slot lifts the goalie most. 60 shots minimum for a shooter, 300 for a goalie. Finish (goals above expected) treats every goalie as equal; this does not.
