      I pulled my data from the Internet, so I didn't do much of any scrubbing with regards to hometown. Guessing there are some discrepencies in regards to what was listed as a player's "hometown" and where they were born, etc...

      Great suggestion on the goaltending, defense stats. Really wish someone kept more detailed stats for college hockey (I've wanted to calculate true Fenwick and Corsi for a while now), but I'll see what I can do.
      IMHO I would continue to do it that way you are doing it using the towns which are listed on the roster. I agree that some players list where they were born and some where they live, (and some list a larger place near where they were born/lived). Whenever I am asked where I was born I list where the hospital was, not where my parents were living at the time. I suspect a lot of people do it the other way. Attempting to correct things will fix some errors, the ones which are easier to correct, but will introduce a new bias.

          They haven't been able to make it into the WCHA yet, eh?

                  Was a good read. I didn't know North Dakota had went over the 700,000 mark.

                      On the break down of heights, weights, and age by position, you have used the HEA list of schools for the ECAC.

                        Thanks for the heads up. Out of town for the weekend, but will fix when I get home. Much appreciated.

                                Does anyone know who the players from DC, Maryland, and Virginia are? I know Jay Williams is from (and listed as being from) McLean, VA, but I'm curious about the others. An interesting case regarding Virginia and the point of where players grew up vs. what they're listed as on the roster was Brendan Woods. His freshman year, he was listed as being from Fairfax, VA, because his father, Bob Woods, was an assistant coach for the Capitals. The next year, he was listed as being from southern California, as his family moved there because Bob Woods became an assistant coach for the Ducks. If I recall correctly, he's really from Manitoba.
