Wow, that's amazing. Looks like the Kings, Preds and Blues just got hosed being matched-up against the Sharks when they were all so high. Did he ever post his model before the playoffs started?

I'm depressed all over again about Preds v Sharks 😞

Yeah, before the playoffs, he posted a series of graphs with his model's predictions for each team's probability of winning each round:

Ah.

Interestingly (though surely not coincidentally), that top five also corresponds to top five Fenwick in last 20 regular season GP (although not in the same order): https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Cj_B6ItUgAArAM7.jpg.

Makes me wonder about what inputs the different models use. @shane1342o's model, which has been the most successful so far, clearly with some different metrics -- he said he had the winner of Pens/Caps as the cup favorite, whereas @DTMAboutheart had Caps ranked 11th, behind all the teams faced by the Sharks.

Would there actually be wider interest on meme in the kind of post another anon mentioned, comparing the different stats models in detail? I don't want to do it and clog up meme if no one cares, but I'm pretty curious now.

No, please, go ahead. I failed out of following the stats community on twitter in a fit of pique sometime during the season, so I haven't seen any of their stuff.

Sorry @DTMAbourheart with Caps 7th, not 11th

Cool, it seems like there's at least three of us, so yay! I might not have time to do all of it, but I'll try to post after the playoffs are over, in a separate thread so people can ignore it if they don't care.

I would be very interested in reading that!

Feels kind of old skool fandom. Reminds me of how there used to be a website that would track all the various sources of Buffy spoiler leaks over the course of the season and analyze which places ended up being more trustworthy regarding what happened on the show.
