What is K?<\/h1>\n

Similar to last episode’s WAR discussion, K is a single statistic developed by Manny. Rather than comparing players to replacement level, it compares them to the average player. You can read up on it in full here<\/a>, or listen to the episode for the quick and dirty.<\/p>\n

Corisca<\/h1>\n

Corsica.Hockey<\/a> is the best hockey statistics website out there, and running it is a thankless job, that Manny has done tirelessly. We chat briefly about updates and the future of the site.<\/p>\n

Emmanuel Perry<\/h2>\n
Manny has been a part of the hockey analytics scene for a number of years. Quick with a joke, a picture of salad, or a well-crafted argument, he is an invaluable member of the community. You can follow him on Twitter @MannyElk<\/a><\/div>\n
