Sports Reference LLC Launches Hockey-Reference.com with Complete, Easy-to-Use Hockey Stats
Philadelphia, PA (PRWEB) April 17, 2008 -- Sports Reference LLC today launched its newest historical sports statistics site. Hockey-Reference.com (http://www.hockey-reference.com/) provides statistical information for every player, team, and league at hockey's highest level in Sports Reference's easy-to-use format. It joins the top-rated and popular Sports Reference baseball, football and basketball sites.
"We are excited to add hockey to our group of sites. We already have a lot of fans visiting the Sports Reference sites and we believe we've brought something new to the market that hockey fans the world over will enjoy and respond to," said Sports Reference President Sean Forman.
Hockey-Reference.com (http://www.hockey-reference.com/) was created out of a partnership with Dan Diamond & Associates, the producers of the "NHL Official Guide and Record Book" and "Total Hockey". "No one has more stats and more experience with hockey stats than Dan Diamond," stated Forman.
Hockey-Reference.com contains complete NHL results from the 1917-1918 season through the just completed season. Every player's stats, from the junior leagues up to the NHL, are listed in a fully sortable format. Users can find complete team statistics along with the score of every game in NHL history. The site also includes complete award results, all-time and single-season leaderboards by league or by franchise, a complete history of the draft, and the Power Play tool that allows users to create their own leaderboards, and much more. All of this is packaged in Sports Reference's easy-to-use format.
The Sports Reference sites currently serve over 20 million pages a month and nearly one million users a month. Advertising sales for the sites is handled by Fantasy Sports Ventures (http://www.fantasysportsventures.com/) of New York, NY.
Sports Reference (http://www.sports-reference.com/), founded in December 2007, operates historical sports statistics websites with a focus on being the most complete and easiest-to-use references on the web.
