The evaluation of pace of play in hockey

(Die Bewertung des Spieltempos im Eishockey)

This paper explores new definitions for pace of play in ice hockey. Using detailed event data from the 2015-2016 regular season of the National Hockey League (NHL), the distance of puck movement with possession is the proposed criterion in determining the pace of a game. Although intuitive, this notion of pace does not correlate positively and strongly with expected and familiar quantities such as goals scored and shots taken.
