2013 NHL Player attributes are now out! [WSH]

Recommended Posts

Every year when the regular season is over we release a full set of NHL players attributes.

 

The attributes are generated using 100% of the players stats of the current season, using complex formulas that are fair to all players. With so many stats available today, it is much easier to create attributes that represent every player accurately.
