Early access · scouts & player advisors

Evaluate players over a full season — without attending 40 games

Built for scouts and player advisors who need to see development, not a single weekend. Shift Excellence turns a season of real game data into measurable improvement curves and head-to-head comparisons — every stat benchmarked against the player's own division.

The dedicated scout workflow is in development. Early-access scouts get a direct line to the team and help shape what ships first.

The sources

Data you can trust

CSSHL game data

Live game stats pulled directly from the CSSHL feed — goals, assists, shots, TOI, and more, from every regular-season game.

Advanced game data

When a parent forwards their advanced game report email, we read the full stats PDF automatically — shot attempts, zone entries, faceoff charts — and save every video clip link from the email.

Verified box scores

Parents can enter any box score manually. Every import is tied to a real game — date, opponent, league, and result — not a self-assessment.

Shift Excellence is an independent evaluation tool and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to the CSSHL, CHL, WHL, NHL Central Scouting, or any other league, team, or governing body. League and game data is referenced for informational purposes only. All player data is provided by account holders and used with their permission.

Live example

See a real side-by-side comparison

The comparison tool is live. Open the sample to see how two players stack up across every stat category — the same view a scout would use.

A scout's side-by-side player comparison: two prospects with OVR ratings (59 vs 52), player identities, league percentile rankings, and a verdict on who wins more stat categories
Two players compared head-to-head — league rankings, category breakdown, and a verdict (demo data from the live app).

Frequently Asked Questions

Game stats are sourced from CSSHL feeds, advanced game reports forwarded by parents, and manually entered box scores. Every data point is tied to a real, verified game — not self-reported.

Why trust the number

Built by hockey people. Backed by real data.

Pro-level evaluation

Designed with coaches who've worked in pro and elite youth hockey — your player is graded the way scouts actually evaluate talent, not by a self-rating.

Real games, not opinions

7,315 players across 6 leagues and 230 teams. Every rating comes from real game data, measured against your player's own division.

The number is earned

Nobody scores themselves. The OVR comes off the ice and it moves as the work goes in — so progress is something you can see, not argue about.

Every parent asks the same thing — is my child actually developing? For the first time there's a real answer on the ice, not a hunch. This is how pro organizations evaluate players, built for youth hockey.
