Peter Tanner is the owner and operator of MoneyPuck, which has expanded into one of the essential stops for any hockey fan looking to understand more about the game. Yesterday, Tanner kindly answered some questions from Japers’ Rink writer Greg Young about their process, why their model is (relatively) optimistic about the Caps chances, and what’s to come from the site.
Greg Young: So you’ve been developing MoneyPuck for awhile now...what was the inspiration behind you starting the site?
Peter Tanner: The website started with in-game win probability in 2015, which I had previously seen for the Superbowl.
