Timo Elliott recently posted on a new capability available from our Labs team - Polestar. It seems that his use of a hockey example has become a theme. Another colleague of mine noted that the co-founder of SAP Hasso Plattner owns a stake in the San Jose Sharks.

What is really interesting is that the data set is only 16 rows pulled from a website, yet you can quickly glean really interesting facts and trends. Thank you Fredrick - great video. As a Brit living in Canada, it seems I am doomed to hear about Hockey all the time. Clearly, I need to go and get some Rugby data and produce the next example myself.

Also, here is the spreadsheet so you can try this your self at http://polestar.ondemand.com
