One more announcement, and this is a good one. I am happy to announce that through database and code optimizations I have achieved significant reductions in page load times making the user experience significantly better.

Team and Player pages load 50-60% faster than previously.

I understand that people don't like red=good and blue=bad in my player cards. I cannot switch them around because my mind doesn't think that way. However, I am willing to switch to green is good. Thoughts on this color scheme?

Update to Player Cards: You can now find 2023-24 and 2024-25 player cards on player pages which is useful for players who have not played the minimum 5GP this season to have a card.

NHL Edge data doesn't go back any further so it doesn't make sense to go back any further using this format.

Here is where I am at with the player cards. I know some people prefer red=bad and blue=good but my eyes don't work that way and that isn't how the website is set up either. So think Red=Hot=Good, Blue=Cold=Bad.
October 22, 2025 at 3:34 AM
A lot of people don't like Red indicating Good and Blue indicating Bad. My brain is completely re-wired the other way around.

No guarantee that I'll change things up, but which of these do you like better? Blue=Good or Red=Good (I probably need to tone down the color scales regardless).

Working on some player cards (team cards coming soon too). I still have some tweaking but what are your thoughts so far? This guy seems pretty good.

We are still looking for volunteers to help maintain team transactions and rosters/lineups. Plenty of teams are still in need of admins.

I spent a good part of yesterday and today optimizing the team and player pages on TheStanleyCap.com. I have more that I can do but they should load somewhat faster now. Team page load times reduced ~30-40% and player pages ~20%.

I've had a few questions about how much work this will be. For most teams it might be 5-10 minutes per day and some days maybe none. It requires updating lineups on game days and entering transactions (promotions/demotions from minors mostly) when they occur.
