Know every player in the league.
Long-form scouting reports in the tradition of the old pro hockey handbooks — the finesse game, the physical game, the mental game. One report per player, a new edition every season, and the old ones stay up.

Connor McDavid
#97C · Edmonton Oilers
The fastest player in the league is also its most patient one; the danger is not the speed itself but what he does at the end of it.
Leon Draisaitl
#29C · Edmonton Oilers
One of the two or three most dangerous goal-scorers alive, and he does it at a pace that looks like he is barely trying.
Evan Bouchard
#2D · Edmonton Oilers
A 95-point defenseman with the hardest shot on the team and a turnover in him that will take a year off your life.
What is in a report
Every player gets a bio block, the numbers, and then the same four questions asked in plain language.
Last Season
What the numbers actually were, and what they hide. The stat line is the start of the argument, not the end of it.
The Finesse Game
Skating, hands, vision, the shot. What a player can do with the puck, and what he reaches for when the play breaks down.
The Physical Game
Size, strength, whether he hits, whether he can be moved off a puck, and how well the body is holding up.
The Intangibles
Temperament and honest criticism. Where a player is trending, and the thing about him nobody wants to say out loud.
Clubs covered
The 2026-27 edition, filling in one roster at a time.
The archive
Nothing gets overwritten. Each season is its own edition, so you can read what was said about a player three years ago and judge how it aged.
