About us

Modeling the Speed and Decisions of Modern Hockey

IceAscend Analytics is a premium hockey intelligence platform built for teams, analysts, scouts, media
and serious fans who want to see beyond the scoreboard. We transform games from the NHL, AHL, KHL,
international tournaments, playoffs and emerging leagues into structured models of speed, decisions
and probabilities.

Our Mission

Our mission is to bring clarity to complex, high-tempo hockey.
We connect advanced data, tracking-inspired concepts and video analysis with real tactical context,
so you can understand not just what happened, but why each decision and pattern mattered over sixty minutes and across a season.

What We Cover

• Advanced match analysis: five-on-five play, special teams, transition phases and key momentum swings.
• Player performance insights: role-based impact, micro-stats, deployment patterns and development arcs.
• Tactical breakdowns: forecheck and neutral-zone systems, breakouts, in-zone structures and special teams schemes.
• Data-driven predictions: pre-game models, in-series probabilities and long-term performance indicators.
• League coverage: NHL, AHL, KHL, international events, playoffs and rising professional leagues.

Our Analytics Approach

We blend event data, tracking-style information and detailed video review.
IceAscend Analytics focuses on what drives results: chance quality, shot location and context,
transition efficiency, defensive structure stability, forecheck pressure, special teams value
and how coaches adjust matchups as the game evolves.

Who IceAscend Analytics Is For

IceAscend Analytics is designed for front offices, coaching staffs, performance and analytics departments,
independent scouts, agents, media professionals and data-minded fans.
If you care about systems, roles, sustainability and probabilities rather than just hot streaks, this platform is for you.

From Raw Events to Hockey-First Models

We start with a hockey-first perspective—systems, matchups, coaching decisions and player roles—then layer data on top.
Our models are built to reflect the reality of the ice: line changes, game state, travel, schedule congestion
and situational usage all factor into how we interpret the numbers.

Turning Games into Structured Patterns

Every game is a sequence of decisions.
We map out forecheck triggers, breakout options, neutral-zone tactics and in-zone rotations to show
how teams build, maintain or lose control. Our breakdowns highlight repeatable patterns that can be used
for preparation, recruitment and long-term evaluation.

Supporting Better Decisions Across the Organization

Our work is built to be actionable.
We focus on clear visuals, football-style hockey language and concise takeaways so departments
can use the same information for different decisions—from line matching and special teams tweaks
to contract and roster planning.

A Canadian Base With a Global Rink View

Based in Canada, we follow hockey wherever it is played at a high level.
From NHL and AHL arenas to KHL rinks, international tournaments and emerging professional leagues,
we pay attention to rink sizes, travel, schedule density and stylistic trends when interpreting performances.

Looking Ahead

As IceAscend Analytics grows, we are expanding our tactical libraries,
interactive dashboards, player and team models and competition reports.
Our long-term goal is to be your trusted partner for understanding, explaining and projecting modern hockey.
