i think about hilary knight's boston blades fuckboy lesbian era all the time. it's still crazy to me she wasn't even out at that point.

in addition to the fact that hil had aged like fine wine, if i didn't know that the blades are a DEFUNCT hockey team you could convince me this was 2023 knighter.

A Compilation of my Favorite Women's Hockey Resources

I've posted these scattered around and figured it be fun to make a masterpost! im almost certainly missing some, so please feel free to add

A lot of these websites have tip jars, subscriptions, and more, and if you use them a lot, I highly recommend sending some money their way

Catch all:

Elite prospects <- Track many women's leagues and their stats, including international, historical, collegiate. you can also go to eliteprospects.com/womens to see transactions occuring between women's league. they also have an app now!

Giants in the crease <- Tracks goaltender statistics including quality starts and goals saved above average for PWHL, SDHL, and has historical CWHL and PHF stats.

PWHL:

Kyle Cushman's master spreadsheet <- includes depth charts, a game score model, breaks down stats by special teams, translates a lot of basic stats to over 60 stats to adjust for ice time, tracks attendance and stats for each team, and more.

Capbuddy <- PWHL contract information including rosters, who’s on reserve, injuries, and more in a super clean format

hockeystats.com/pwhl <- If you’ve followed nhl statistics before, you may be familiar with this sight via jfresh cards and such. It doesn’t have all of the Same statistics (there’s currently no public tracking of on-ice data) but has its own unique individual expected goal model, fenwick, corsi, ability to toggle stats by on ice situation an so forth

hockey-statistics.com/pwhl/ <- PWHL statistics including raw data you can download for game data, play by play, players, teams, and schedule, then some visualization. Includes its own expected goal model, individual shot charts for skaters and goalies, and more

Slot Work <- primarily PWHL, though does have its own WAR model, expected goal model, team comparison, playoff odds, team info, and more. Does also have some info for IIHF games

The Purple Sheet <- includes standings, playoff races, gold plan chances, stat leaders, draft board and who declaed, contract status for each team, and a transaction tractor

pwhl-insights <- similar to above, statistics for individual games, teams, and players. Includes game pace, a gamescore model, fenwick/corsi/high danger chances/scoring chances on a team level, individual shot charts, and takes a lot of the stuff from the pwhl game day app and makes it cleaner and easier to pull from **it seems this page is no longer running, but some old parts of it can be found via internet archive or messing with the URL**

PWHL play by play scraper in python <- if you want to make some insights of your own, good github link. Creator also has a good article on an expected goal model here

The Ice Garden PWHL signing tracker <- Lets you know who extended with their team, who signed with a different pwhl team, and what kind of signing it was, and how many years

Mike Murphy, John Bouchard, and Gilles Dignard's 2024 PWHL stat spreadsheet <- Season 1 PWHL stats including scoring events, shot attempts, power play breakout data and more

Other Leagues:

I am probably missing some due to language barrier, so once again, if there's any you'd like to add go for it!

Swedish hockey stats website <- Includes on ice goals for v goals against, shot efficency, face off percentage, attendance, etc for regular season, playoffs, and relegation/promotion play

Auroraliiga stats and rosters from the leijonat website <- includes standings, rosters, game information, and player statistics (including time on ice) for Auroraliiga regular season and playoffs. Option to toggle the language to English at the bottom of the page and even has the statistics downloadable!

Postfinance Women's League official stat page <- not gonna lie they're kind of giving us nothing here but you do get a few crumbs

EWHL statistics <- Basic EWHL statistics including face off percentage, scoring efficency, special team stats and spectators

DFEL statistics <- Official German league stats which includes shots on goal, power play/penalty kill information, suspension and penalty news, and more

Collegiate:

NCAA statistics website <- Can toggle between D1 and D3, please note a lot of colleges and conferences also have their own stat pages that are sometimes cleaner and more in depth so worth googling. Usually on individual college website you can find things like total shots and face offs

USCHO <- Standings, Stats, polls, includes D1 and D3. Stats are easily searchable, which is nice if you, say, just want to see all the seniors and can search "sr,"

APX Hockey's commitment list and transfer list <- Made by Sydney Wolf (formerly of Clean Sheet Hockey) D1 hockey, there's a few different transfer and commitment lists on the internet but i LOVE it for how, well, clean and organized it is and that they include context for different players

USports statistics website <- Includes shots on goal, has the ability to save as csv or copy which I love

IIHF:

IIHF tourament page <- you can navigate to different tournaments over different years and levels (click the three dots to get to U18 worlds, on the right hand side you can navigate different years) and will guide you to the website for each one, most of which include a statistical page. A lot of the top division tournaments track shot locations and time on ice if you select a specific game, scroll down to the bottom of the left side bar, and look for "official game sheets"

IIHF Asia and Oceania tournaments <- Same idea as above, but this specific shows events like the Women's Asia Cup and Women's Asia Championship

Historical:

Page of resources from WHKYHAC <- a lot of these are google drive or github links to things ranging from shot location data through olympics to transition data from the PWHPA. Also has historical CWHL statistics. Check out their youtube to see the projects people did!

theirhockeycounts.com <- historical PHF and CWHL statistics, with some college and international statistics too. A little more in depth than what is on elite prospects, including tracking primary assists

Collegehockeystats.net <- D1 women's hockey stats, rosters, schedules from 1999 to 2021

CWHL tracker <- nice and clean website with old CWHL statistic

Ice Garden's 2018 women's hockey statistics primer <- Primer itself still a good intro, and at the bottom are some websites hosting old statistics or projects from PHF / CWHL days. some links are dead (ie the old CWHL website) but can probably be found on a internet archive search

Im really starting to hate takes about trans people in sports from people who clearly just dont like sports (being trans does not make you immune to my growing resentment, a lot of the calls are coming from inside the house). Apparently trans man on the Minnesota Aurora FC is bad? If a team/league is patting themselves on the back too hard or something feel free to call em on that but any trans people in organized sports is good. Especially right now. Should things be more equitable? Absolutely, but in a perfect world we wouldnt even fucking have gendered leagues. We have had trans women in professional women's leagues before and none of the people I have seen whining about Isaac Ranson RN showed any love to women like Jessica Platt when they were playing. They were too busy going SPORTSBALL BAD!
