because I do not post on a regular basis. When I first started this blog, I thought I would be posting at least once a month. But in reality I was doing it about once in a while. And over time I found myself doing more and more hockey related viz.
Consequently, I have been asked to post a weekly column for St. Louis Game Time (a fan run St. Louis Blues hockey blog). This opportunity has created additional opportunities related to hockey data visualization.
I have also been asked to contribute data viz for my organization's website!
So if you are interested in continuing to follow my work, please check out my posts at St. Louis Game Time and keep your eye on the front page of USGBC.org every third and fourth week of the month.
I hope to be back here posting on a semi-regular basis again after the hockey season ends.
Thank you all for reading!

Hockey Day Across America 2013
Last year for Hockey Day Across America, I took a look at the birthplaces of NHL players whose teams were playing on Hockey Day Across America. I decided to update the visualization this year but just focusing on the number of US born players that are currently playing in the NHL during the abbreviated 2012-2013 season.

Where are they now? NHL players abroad during the 2012-2013 lockout.
This is not a good time for hockey fans. When the collective bargaining agreement between the NHL owners the the NHL Players' Association expired and no new agreement had been reached, the owners decided to lockout the NHLPA. This has resulted in a delayed start to the season and a possible repeat of the 2004-2005 season when the entire season was scrapped.
As the lockout became more and more certain, NHL players who were originally from Europe started to head back home and sign contracts to play with teams back in their home countries. As the exodus of players continued, lists started to be compiled to allow fans to keep track of which players were playing for which teams. However, most of these lists have been unable to tell the complete story of how many players are playing for which leagues and teams and in which cities and countries.
