I have also completed a regression of blocked shots vs. ice time
Forwards: 1.2 * EV hours + 7.0 * PK hours = blocked shots
Defense: 3.8 * EV hours + 11.5 * PK hours = blocked shots
Regression was completed using 2006-2007 data.
Did the regression in such a way that the constant variable was no significant.
ev = even strength ice time in hours
sh = short handed ice time in hours
P = D: defense, F: forward
