I know that I've yet to score either the Edmonton or Vancouver game, but I wanted to throw up the Colorado game first so as to allow for a comparison between my recording of the chances and that of Scott Reynolds over at Gospel of Hockey, who is recording scoring chances for the Avalanche this season.

Scott has provided an excellent review of the game over at his blog that summarizes the game fairly comprehensively. Put briefly, the Avalanche were the better team at even strength, yet ended up trailing in chances on account of taking too many penalties and doing a terrible job of killing them.

Interestingly, while Scott and I each scored 20 chances for the Wild and 15 for the Avalanche, there was some disagreement in terms of the scoring of individual chances. Out of the 42 chances that occurred in the game (that is, the number of chances recorded by either Scott or I), 28 were agreed upon, with each of us scoring 7 chances that were not regarded as scoring chances by the other recorder.

Fortunately, Vic has designed an application that measures inter-rater agreement in terms of scoring chance recording, which thus allows for a quantitative determination to be made of our recording similarity. Using the data from this game, the inter-rater agreement between Scott and I, expressed as a Cohen's Kappa value, was 0.70, which is reasonably high.

Interesting; I had a Kappa of .77 with Dennis on the last EDM-MTL game.

Now, it seems Vic has fixed his SC app, so we'll soon have a comparable of the Habs/Avalanche Game!

Wait, I spoke too quickly; it doesn't work for the Avalanche and Ottawa game, but it does for the other ones.

Help me jeebus!

After the 6 inter-division games are up I bet that Kappa value goes up.

Seems like there is sometimes a bit of a disconnect between scoring chances and Corsi at the individual game level. Which is to be expected but it makes it harder to determine who is "playing better" in each game. Might be a fool's errand anyway.

I did a review of our chances at GoH looking at all of the chances we scored differently. We actually had 8 different chances each which brought our Kappa down to 0.66 I think. Having never worked with Kappa values in the past, is that any good?
