Data Extraction
Using the NHL API, game data is extracted and structured by date, providing up-to-date information ranging from player biographical details to shot-level data.
Data Modeling
Dimension tables are structured and modeled within Power BI to support exploratory data analysis (EDA) and deliver both team- and player-level insights.
Predictive Models
Machine learning models generate probabilistic predictions of individual player performance, with additional validation through distribution-based checks.
Parlay Combinations
After identifying top selections, multi-leg shot combinations are generated using model probabilities and market odds to evaluate expected value and higher-return opportunities.
Smarter Parlays, Backed by Data
Built on a foundation of sports analytics and data science, Top Shelf Analytics emphasizes transparency, consistency, and real-world application. Every model output is designed to transform complex NHL data into clear, actionable insight that supports smarter decision-making.
Each parlay combination is built using machine learning–driven probabilities, comparing model projections against sportsbook odds to identify value.
By combining model-based probabilities with market odds, we highlight opportunities with positive expected value and strong win probability.
Expected Value (EV) reflects long-term profitability, while Win Probability represents the likelihood of success — resulting in data-backed parlays designed to outperform intuition.
While this example focuses on shots on goal, the same approach applies to goals, assists, blocked shots, and more.
