Oh hey. It’s been a while. Did you miss me? Probably not. With more stats being introduced to LeagueGaming recently, it’s time to recreate my old ELO Ratings with a much better system in place. First of all, it’s not really ELO, as ELO is entirely different in that case. So, my new rating system will now be called WIN Rating. WIN Rating has seen many forms in the past, but I think this one truly is the best system it’s ever been. If you never seen my old posts using this system, here’s a link to one of my old posts: https://www.leaguegaming.com/forums...-of-the-season-player-ratings-s34-nhl.301335/ Here’s how the system works: WIN Rating was designed as a one-in-all stat that can be used to determine a player’s performance strictly through stats. The rating uses many stats found in NHL and compares to how the player compares to the “average” player in said stat. Some comparisons/inspiration for the system could be WAR/GAR found in real life hockey, or HLTV Rating found in CSGO Esports. You may have seen variations of this in my “ELO Ratings” found on LeagueGaming previously. An average player will come out to a 1.00 rating in the system. A player performing above average will have a rating above 1.00 (1.01+), and a below average performance will be below a 1.00. (0.99-) The system is calculated as follows: Some stats are weighted heavier than others, with things like Scoring Factor and PTS/GM having more value than something like Shots/GM. The more data that is in the system, the closest in accuracy the ratings will be, so expect some numbers to potentially change come end of the season. Your individual performance may also be hindered by the level at which your team/line is playing at, but there will always be standouts on teams. So here’s how teams shape up in the system: Spoiler: Pacific Division Pacific: Spoiler: Central Division Central: Spoiler: Atlantic Division Atlantic: Spoiler: Metropolitan Division Metropolitan: And here’s how teams stack up against each other in total: Thanks for reading! I do this stuff for esports as well, which will be in that forum, but also on my twitter at https://twitter.com/WingelsDGC , so be sure to check it out! Good luck in the rest of the season!
Awesome stuff as always Wingels. Your explanation of the ratings made this very easy to understand. Stats don't tell the whole story but it's nice to see something that takes all stats into consideration.
Nice work! Would be cool to see player rankings across both OFF/DEF as well as filtered by FWD/DEF. Great fresh take, though.
Great media @WingelsDGC as always! But i'm suppose to believe that I'm top 3 best defense rating in the league? I demand a recount!
Because some people were asking, here is the top 15 players at each position. Note some numbers may have shifted, as I made some slight back end adjustments.
