Stanley Cup playoffs are just around the corner, starting this weekend.

I'll post some #data #visualization #dataviz for each team pairs before the playoffs start. First, we'll start with the eastern conference.

These are rolling 5 days #metrics for each team, allowing for easy comparison. #hnom #stanleycup #nhl #hockey

The recording of my PyData Global talk about data visualisation with Plotnine in #Python is now available! 🐍
