Steve Valiquette on the Metrics Behind Winning Hockey

On this week’s episode of Energy Line, Nate Thompson and Julie Stewart-Binks discuss whether the league’s young guns can keep scoring at their current pace—and how “Enough is Enough” has quickly become the rallying cry for a few frustrated teams.

Then they’re joined by Rangers analyst and Clear Sight Analytics founder Steve Valiquette, who breaks down:

• Whether or not things are turning around for the Rangers after their first home win

• The key metrics every team needs to hit to win consistently

• The data markers that help to predict if a team will make the playoffs

• Whether he’d ever consider coaching or taking a front-office role

Plus, a surprising reveal about Henrik Lundqvist’s secret talent—and plenty more.

Enjoy, and we’ll see you back here next week for more Energy Line.
