# fastRhockey

[`fastRhockey`](https://github.com/sportsdataverse/fastRhockey) is an R
package for accessing hockey data from the **NHL** (National Hockey
League) and **PWHL** (Professional Women’s Hockey League) via public web
APIs. It provides structured data frames of play-by-play, schedule,
standings, roster, draft, player stats, and team data. The package also
includes integrated **expected goals (xG)** models trained via XGBoost.

Part of the [SportsDataverse](https://sportsdataverse.org/) family of
R/Python packages for sports analytics.

### Key Features

- **NHL Data** – Game feeds, boxscores, play-by-play with shifts,
  schedules, standings, rosters, draft picks, player/team stats,
  playoffs, and broadcast information via `api-web.nhle.com` and
  `api.nhle.com/stats`
- **NHL Edge Analytics** (33 functions) – Skater, goalie, and team
  advanced metrics from `api-web.nhle.com/v1/edge/...` covering shot
  location, shot speed, skating speed, skating distance, zone time,
  comparisons, landing pages, and top-10 leaderboards. Each wrapper
  accepts an optional `season` argument and falls back to the current
  season via the `/now` form
- **NHL Records API** (25 functions) – First-time integration with
  `records.nhl.com/site/api/` for franchise totals, player/skater/goalie
  career and real-time stats, draft lottery, hall of fame, trophies,
  awards, attendance, venues, officials, and combine data
