Your player has created a new analytics stat for the local hockey blog that you worked with earlier this season. What's the stat, how does it work, and which team is best at it? The stat does not have to make sense or have practical real-life analytical use, just have fun.

The stat we came up with was the Anger/60. This stat is designed to measure how much aggression a player builds over the course of an entire game. It takes in a number of quantified numbers including things like how many swears are used, when the PIMs are accumulated and what various body readings are telling us. Physically the stat looks for things like increased heart rate and adrenaline along with the tightness of a grip. Along with the Anger/60 (or A/60) an anger graph is accompanied to see what points in the game a player get the hottest head. Using this data a coach can make some decisions on when that player can be best deployed and if he is going to be a liability at that particular moment. Some players will show this stat more simply due to the fact they have a hotter tempted. The important thing to look for is the variability in each player.
