What is CORE?

CORE stands for Comprehensive On-Ice Rating Engine. It's our custom-built system for evaluating NHL players based on their total on-ice impact with a single Overall Rating. For skaters we also provide an Offensive and Defensive Rating.

Player Contract Value An innovative way to assess a player's current value and evaluate it against their contract. Important to note that this assessment does NOT consider player or contract projections.
