Slapshot Bets Head-to-Head Data Product - Overview and Instructions

I am excited to announce the release of the head-to-head data product. This article serves as an overview of what the product is, the purpose of the product, how to use the product, and how to purchase the product. You can also watch a brief YouTube video here to see a physical demo of the product, which also goes over most of the points in this article.

What This Product Is

Compiled in this product is all 496 NHL team combinations of head-to-head data combined among the past four seasons (2021-2022, 2022-2023, 2023-2024, and 2024-2025). Any stats related to the Utah Mammoth before the 2024-2025 season are included as stats of the Arizona Coyotes, as despite technically being a new franchise, the roster of the Utah Hockey Club was carried over from the Coyotes in the 2024-2025 season. This product is an adjustable table that contains the following head-to-head statistics:

• Records

  • W/L/OTL

  • GF/GP, GA/GP, & Diff/GP

The Purpose of This Product

The purpose of this product is to provide convenience for bettors to easily find head-to-head data before games to help with any betting choices. Non-bettors can also use this product if they frequently use other website such as NHL.com or HockeyReference but prefer a much faster and convenient way to view head-to-head data. However, content from this product is not available for download or copy/pasting, where this feature is possible with other sites. While nothing included in this product is a secret, nowhere else can you find access to multiple categories of head-to-head data and charts within seconds. Any one of the 496 combinations of team matchups can be found within seconds, where going from one combination to the next is also just seconds apart, as shown in the tutorial video. Using any other source, it would take minutes to find the head-to-head stats of one particular stat over the last season, never mind multiple stats.

The stats included in this product are meant to provide important context for matchups ahead of games to support various betting categories. By utilizing the chart and graphs, you can easily see how a team plays against specific teams in various categories, and can make quick comparisons with other teams to see if there are any particular favourable or unfavourable matchups. The stats given aim to help with the betting categories below.

Summary of how best to interpret the stats in this product for betting

How To Use This Product

This product is generally user-friendly, but there are three important buttons to review when using the filter as shown below.

From left to right, the buttons are: general filtering buttons, “multi-select” button, and “clear filter” button

Starting off with the buttons in its base form, clicking on them will simply give you the result that you clicked on. For example, if you clicked the team button “Anaheim Ducks”, the opponent button “Boston Bruins”, and the Home/Away button “Home” you would get the head-to-head stats from the Anaheim Duck’s perspective and their stats when they play against the Boston Bruins at home.

The dynamics change slightly when you click the “multi-select” button, which will light up with three green check marks once it is selected. When using multi-select, it adjusts the functions of the previously discussed buttons. Instead of getting what you click on, multi-select essentially “reverses” the current stat of the button. Let’s continue with the previous example, where Anaheim, Boston, and Home are selected. If I select “multi-select” and then select “Buffalo Sabres” for opponent, and “2021-2022” for season, you would get the Anaheim Duck’s stats when they play against the Boston Bruins and Buffalo Sabres at Home from 2022-2023 to 2024-2025; the 2021-2022 season is now excluded. Previously, the Buffallo Sabres button in the opponent filter was “off” but selecting it with multi-select turns it “on (the opposite). On the other hand, the 2021-2022 season button was selected on, so clicking on it with multi-select turns it off. If multi-select was off, clicking on 2021-2022 would result in data for only the 2021-2022 season.

Finally is the simplest button, which is the “clear filter” button. This button is useful after going through various filters and wanting to start from scratch.

These filtering options adjust both the data table and charts simultaneously, allowing for a seamless experience.
