Vancouver entrepreneurs net analytics contract with NHL's Capitals
Cole Gawenda of Vancouver, front, the 20 year old co founder of hockey analytics firm HockeyData Inc. with colleagues Brian Guindon, right, and Jens Persson Thomas in their downtown office.
"I've never actually played hockey," said Gawenda, operations manager of the analytics firm HockeyData.
HockeyData Inc. will be tracking events such as zone entries and passesfor the Caps' young prospects in the American Hockey League. The company has no business relationship with the Vancouver Canucks.
The companytracks player events and providesadvanced metrics from minor pro and junior leagues that offer little to no data for public consumption and uses it to help teams and agents assess their own players, along with players they covet from other teams and players they might choose to sign or draft.
"When I was just replica birkin handbags starting school I got in touch with Vancouver based player agent Cliff Mander and worked with him for a year," said Gawenda. "Cliff's company CKMSports Management is analytics focused and fake hermes bag they track that data for their clients. CKMcan use that information to help develop the players."
Gawenda and Hohl foundedthe firm last year and now employ 20 people, supplying data and analytics to professional hockey teams and player agents. The information also has valueas teams prepare for the 2017 NHL entry draft on June 23 and 24.
With roughly 1,000 active players, the AHL is a virtual black hole for performance metrics compared to the robust and varied data produced by the NHL. Major junior leagues are even worse.
"The NHL provides Corsi and other possession metrics online, but there is nothing like that for other leagues," said Gawenda. "We have a proprietary tracking system that allows us to collect data from games that gives us insights on the composition of the players and what plays they make and what results from that."
HockeyData staff watch AHL games and record player events including when and where they happen on the ice.
Their event tracking system was developed with financial support from the National Research Council's Industrial Research Assistance Program.

van Koeverden after bronze finish
Adam van Koeverden felt the pain imitiaton hermes bag all right, though perhaps not the way you might think.
The four replica hermes handbags outlet time Olympic medallist was admittedly disappointed when his usually well fuelled tank came up empty late in the men K 1 1,000 metre race on Monday morning as he faded to third in his first Pan Am Games.
But the screaming pain throughout his body was much worse than the feeling of falling short of a golden moment in a rare opportunity to compete in front of a rousing hometown crowd.
about how much you can endure, the 33 year old Canadian paddling star said after he had time to process the result. I couldn endure the amount of pain I subjected myself to today.
was hot. There was a headwind. It was a longer race. With about 200 metres left, I was really hurting. With 100 metres left, I was trying not to get passed. I was feeling faint at the finish line and I usually fine in the heat. It was exhausting. his past success, it would be foolish to read too much into one lacklustre result from a resilient, proven athlete. That said, it will be fascinating to watch and Hermes birkin bags fake see what van Koeverden has left in him, starting with his next race, a world cup event and Olympic qualifier next month in Italy.
don think my body 33, van Koeverden said on Monday with his with his regular blunt self analysis, good or bad. think my body starting to feel older than 33. Oakville native is committed to making one more spirited run at the Olympics where he will attempt to add to his medal count when the big Games land in Rio de Janeiro.
We will replica birkin handbags see, first next month and if all goes well next summer if those 33 year old arms, abs, torso and leg have one more Olympian effort in them.
At one point on Monday, it wasn looking to be that way. In the middle portion of the 1,000 metre race, van Koeverden was in such command that the announcer at the Welland course informed the partisan crowd that the Canadian had the race such brashness turned out to be the nail in his coffin.
The the fatigue of the Canadian set in and the surge of Cuban gold medallist Jorge Garcia and runner up Daniel Dal Bo of Argentina proved too much.
Van Koeverden, who finished more than a second behind Dal Bo, has admitted to feeling a sense of responsibility surrounding the Games, committed to making it a good show for a country and the region he grew up in. But he also wanted to put on a big, winning effort on the water.
It hasn been a great summer for van Koeverden yet and that partly by design. As he nears the end of what has been a superb career representing his country, there is a singular athletic focus left.
Yes, he wanted to triumph here and yes, there a lot more going on in his life now than when he made such a resounding Olympic debut in Athens in 2004. But to make Brazil a reality, van Koeverden training this year had to set him up for a peak performance at the all important Olympic qualifier.
am trying to analyze everything, van Koeverden said. think it just where my training is at right now. I prepared for (the Pan Ams), but it like a mini taper, not a middle of the season taper.
have a very important race coming up in August that where my focus has been. Ultimately, the end of the season is where we need to be our best. said that, van Koeverden was still searching for a stronger effort on a steamy Monday in front of full grandstands over a course he has raced on since he was a teen.
don want to suggest a great result at the Pan Ams wasn part of my ultimate process, van Koeverden said. what I was expecting.
He is a four time Olympic medallist, but before Monday morning, Adam van Koeverden was still a 33 year old rookie in something.
The world renowned kayaker from Oakville, Ont., can add another medal to his list, however, though not the colour he would have preferred. Van Koeverden faded late in the men K 1 event at the Welland Flatwater Centre to capture a bronze medal.
Paddling in front of a full grandstand on the shore of the Welland canal, van Koeverden paced himself early then stormed to a lead, to the roar of a loud and large partisan crowd.

Syrian refugees settling in
From the west end of Vancouver to Chilliwack, government assisted Syrian refugees are settling in unexpected areas thanks to relatively affordable pockets of housing and the generosity of landlords and the public. between Nov. 4, 2015 and Dec. 31, 2016.
During that time, there were two major influxes of government assisted Syrian refugees, with more than 40,000 people resettled in Canada. Those were the people tracked in the report.
"This was a first for us," Chris Friesen, the society's director of settlement services, said of the report.
Where these families settle in Metro Vancouver largely correlates with where they can find affordable housing. Government assisted Syrian refugee households receive one year of federal resettlement income assistance, the amount depending on family size and composition. For instance, a family with two adults and three children would receive $1,399 to $1,499 per month.
Almost three quarters of the refugees settled by the Immigrant Services Society found permanent homes in the suburbs, largely because of the need to find large rental units to house big families within constrained budgets. for more than a decade, and has the largest concentration of Syrian refugee households in the province.
The city replica van cleef cosmos ring is home to 1,082, or 43 per cent, of the Syrian refugees who were settled by the Immigrant Services Society.
The Tri Cities, Burnaby, New Westminster and Vancouver have also traditionally received large numbers of government assisted refugees, and this wave was no different.
"There is no way or hope in hell on welfare rates that anybody can live on the west side of Vancouver without some support, and that's where the generosity came in from homeowners, landlords, faith communities you name it," said Friesen.
The same phenomenon occurred in areas like Richmond, Ladner and more expensive neighbourhoods in cities such as Surrey.
Langley, Pitt Meadows, Maple Ridge, Abbotsford and Chilliwack ended up becoming unexpected destinations for refugees, who would not normally venture so far from the services they need, because of cheaper rents and larger units.
"It's really a kind of search for affordability," he said.
Friesen said the report is meant to be a resource that will help all levels of government and service organizations determine how to best serve Syrian refugees.
Mike Buda, executive director of the TransLink Mayors' Council, replica van cleef & arpels ring price received a copy of the report, along with all of the mayors. He said it is important information for TransLink replica van cleef engagement ring price because immigrants in general and refugees in particular are disproportionately more likely to use transit than the average Canadian.
Although the numbers aren't high enough to shape transit policy at this time, if the patterns continue, then there may be a higher demand for transit in areas that are currently underserved.

Signs of strong season buoy Greater Victoria marinas
and Canadian visitors show up at Greater Victoria marinas.
A new luxury marina may finally get started in Victoria's harbour and a marina owner in Sidney is planning a four storey condominium development on the upland.
"Definitely, there's been a rebound in the market over the last year," said Greg Horne, co owner of Custom Yacht Sales Ltd. in Sidney. dollar.
"We've exported a fair number of boats and replica van cleef and arpels alhambra ring I know a lot of the other brokerages have as well."
There's also been some pent up demand in the local market, which represents more than 50 per cent of sales, Horne said. Alberta residents and other Canadians make up 25 to 35 per cent of the market and the balance are Americans.
All categories are seeing sales. "Everything from luxury yachts to sport fishermen to family cruisers are selling. Before it used to be the high end where we were van cleef alhambra ring replica getting activity." He categorizes a luxury yacht at $500,000 plus. "Then the spring market, coinciding with the Victoria Boat Show in April, just spurred a whole bunch of activity."
Recreational boating plays a major role in the capital region's economy, where everything from rowboats to luxury yachts are built and repaired and supplies are sold. Vessels visiting local harbours bring tourism dollars to the region.
Fishing charters, whale and wildlife viewing trips, and paddling are all part of this world.
Canada's recreational boating industry accounted for about $4.4 billion in annual direct revenues and employed 40,000, said a 2012 report titled the Economic Impact of Recreational Boating in Canada, released by the National Marine Manufacturers' Association.
Canadians own more than 4.3 million boats, according to the report.
Parksville boat broker Guy Robertson handles the lower end of the boat buying market. Many people are looking to convert cheap commercial fishboats or tugs into pleasure craft.
He recently sold a 75 foot steel tug boat, built in 1944, that had replica van cleef & arpels butterfly ring been derelict in Deep Bay.
"That boat will be turned into a half million dollar yacht in probably eight months time," Robertson said. "Just to have a boat with an old diesel motor that burns $10 an hour to drive at eight knots cruising the coast is kind of a dream for a lot of people."
Greater Victoria is a haven for boaters because of its proximity to scenic, sheltered waters, ferry terminals and Victoria International Airport.
"We've got probably the best cruising in North America," said Mark Dickinson, president of Van Isle Marina in Sidney.
Dickson took over Van Isle from his father, Steve, who established the marina with 35 slips in 1955. Van Isle, which recently blasted out reefs to expand its area for moorage, now has 510 slips and room to store another 95 boats on dry land. Dickinson plans to turn the marina over to his daughter, Dana, and son, Greg, who are both involved in the business.
A "huge job generator" at Van Isle has been a haul out site for vessels to be repaired or stored, he said.
Modern marinas have to cater with services boaters now expect, such as Wi Fi, Dickinson said.
Modern cruisers have high tech navigational aids and conveniences such as microwaves and dishwashers.
For Van Isle, 2013 delivered record boat sales and "so far this year, we are running parallel to last year, which is a good sign," Dickinson said. "We are off to a great start. The weather has been great and we have had lots of reservations so far. Day long weekends already."
The majority of visiting boaters are from Washington state, with others arriving from Vancouver, Alberta, Oregon and California, she said.
Port Sidney Marina owner Kim Pullen said summer visitor numbers look strong.
That's made up of "Canadian boaters, who are weather dependent, so we are looking for a good summer. And then you've got your American boaters, who are currency dependent and that looks good."
Pullen had offered the 320 slip marina for sale at $17.2 million but said this week that it is not on the market at this time.
Meanwhile, construction could start "within a few weeks" on the Victoria International Marina, said Larry Halgren, spokesman for the project.

There's also been some pent up demand in the local market, which represents more than 50 per cent of sales, Horne said. Alberta residents and other Canadians make up 25 to 35 per cent of the market and the balance are Americans.
All categories are seeing sales. "Everything from luxury yachts to sport fishermen to family cruisers are selling. Before it used to be the high end where we were van cleef alhambra ring replica getting activity." He categorizes a luxury yacht at $500,000 plus. "Then the spring market, coinciding with the Victoria Boat Show in April, just spurred a whole bunch of activity."
Recreational boating plays a major role in the capital region's economy, where everything from rowboats to luxury yachts are built and repaired and supplies are sold. Vessels visiting local harbours bring tourism dollars to the region.
Fishing charters, whale and wildlife viewing trips, and paddling are all part of this world.
Canada's recreational boating industry accounted for about $4.4 billion in annual direct revenues and employed 40,000, said a 2012 report titled the Economic Impact of Recreational Boating in Canada, released by the National Marine Manufacturers' Association.
Canadians own more than 4.3 million boats, according to the report.
Parksville boat broker Guy Robertson handles the lower end of the boat buying market. Many people are looking to convert cheap commercial fishboats or tugs into pleasure craft.
He recently sold a 75 foot steel tug boat, built in 1944, that had replica van cleef & arpels butterfly ring been derelict in Deep Bay.
"That boat will be turned into a half million dollar yacht in probably eight months time," Robertson said. "Just to have a boat with an old diesel motor that burns $10 an hour to drive at eight knots cruising the coast is kind of a dream for a lot of people."
Greater Victoria is a haven for boaters because of its proximity to scenic, sheltered waters, ferry terminals and Victoria International Airport.
"We've got probably the best cruising in North America," said Mark Dickinson, president of Van Isle Marina in Sidney.
Dickson took over Van Isle from his father, Steve, who established the marina with 35 slips in 1955. Van Isle, which recently blasted out reefs to expand its area for moorage, now has 510 slips and room to store another 95 boats on dry land. Dickinson plans to turn the marina over to his daughter, Dana, and son, Greg, who are both involved in the business.
A "huge job generator" at Van Isle has been a haul out site for vessels to be repaired or stored, he said.
Modern marinas have to cater with services boaters now expect, such as Wi Fi, Dickinson said.
Modern cruisers have high tech navigational aids and conveniences such as microwaves and dishwashers.
For Van Isle, 2013 delivered record boat sales and "so far this year, we are running parallel to last year, which is a good sign," Dickinson said. "We are off to a great start. The weather has been great and we have had lots of reservations so far. Day long weekends already."
The majority of visiting boaters are from Washington state, with others arriving from Vancouver, Alberta, Oregon and California, she said.
Port Sidney Marina owner Kim Pullen said summer visitor numbers look strong.
That's made up of "Canadian boaters, who are weather dependent, so we are looking for a good summer. And then you've got your American boaters, who are currency dependent and that looks good."
Pullen had offered the 320 slip marina for sale at $17.2 million but said this week that it is not on the market at this time.
Meanwhile, construction could start "within a few weeks" on the Victoria International Marina, said Larry Halgren, spokesman for the project.

Victoria police video camera trial begins
A trial program in which police will be able to record their interactions with the public on video and audio through equipment attached to their uniforms has been given the go ahead after concerns regarding privacy were resolved last week.
Earlier this year, Fairfax Media reported hermes men belt replica the so called uniform cams which are already in place in the United States and other Australian states, such as New South Wales were to be tested by police in the southern region of Melbourne, before the trial run was criticised by the police union for its potential to undermine privacy and public trust in police.
Assistant Commissioner Luke Cornelius said on Tuesday that he saw no reason for the test to not go replica Hermes belts france ahead after a "series of exhaustive reviews and consultations with the Commissioner for Law Enforcement Data Security", mainly regarding privacy, were finalised last week.
He said the trial would begin today and last until March. In total, the test would cost $25,000 over the three months and involve 20 police from Frankston, and would eventually be evaluated, with public input, before being potentially enforced.
"We will be seeking feedback from members of the community . around their perceptions and views whether or not this is an appropriate course to take," he said.
Police would be using cameras from VIEVU, Reveal Media and Wolfcom, and each camera would cost between $800 and $1150.
Assistant Commissioner Cornelius said the objective of the pilot was to "test this technology and the rules governing the interaction between police and the community that we serve".
"We want to address any concerns members of the public may have about privacy and how these recordings may be used in relation to subsequent matters."
He said police would tell people that they were being recorded but would not need to ask for their permission.
"When I've actually told someone that they're being recorded, it's amazing how much their behaviour changes. I have to say that's a good thing If we recorded covertly, you wouldn't get that benefit," he said.
"If you're being told by a police officer that you're being recorded, that should be a bit of a wake up call to stop behaving like an idiot."
All recordings would be uploaded to a docking station before being burnt on to a DVD, the Assistant Commissioner said, and the DVD would then be registered as an exhibit.
The recordings would initially be kept for seven years, and would be subject to data and media storage legislation, the Assistant Commissioner said.
"If the information needed to be retained for evidential proposes, it would be retained as any other exhibit," he said.
"If the material is in no way required, that standard legislation that is available under the archives would apply an initial period of seven years, and then we would review that period if we needed to keep it any longer."
Victoria Police spokeswoman Kate Fawcett said there would be some circumstances where fake hermes belts whosale police would be required to release the vision.
"For example, if the vision is going to be used as evidence in court, we would generally supply the defence a copy of that vision. That said, exclusions do apply each case is unique."
Ms Fawcett said people were welcome to apply through Freedom of Information to obtain any footage, "but in terms of actually getting it, it would have to go through the usual FOI process".
The recordings would be made at the discretion of each police officer, Assistant Commissioner Cornelius said, and Victoria Police had "no expectation that the first thing an officer should do [when they interact with the public] is activate their recording device".
"Our primary focus is that officers look first to their safety, and then to the health and safety of the members of the community," he said.
It was an advantage that the trial fake hermes mens belt comes at the busiest time of the year for police, the Assistant Commissioner said, which will give police an "opportunity to test this approach in an environment where public and officer contact is quite high".

Seeing the future of fashion in London
Sarah Mower is a fashion journalist and critic for US Vogue and an advocate for young designers. She is chair of the International Fashion Showcase, a festival of emerging designers organised by the British Council and the British Fashion Council during London Fashion Week, as well as the British Fashion Council's Ambassador for Emerging Talent and Chair of the New Gen committee.
(CNN)As international fashion editors and store buyers fly in from New York to London fashion week today, they're arriving gripped by replica van cleef perlee ring replica an existential crisis.
Disruption has finally hit the designer fashion industry as corporations react with a kind of panic to the cascading consequences of social media, e commerce and churning speed of copyist fast fashion.
On all sides, the cry goes up: what is the future of this industry?
Well, they've come to the right place for a preview. London is fashion's best vantage point for picking up what young people think, what's on their minds, and how they want the world to be, and it now stands as an international smorgasbord of creative ideas.
From Kate to Charlie: Vogue 100 features rare celebrity portraits
London is the city to see new movements taking shape: a whole rising generation of women entrepreneurs, designers who were the first to challenge gender stereotypes, and voices bringing really surprising cultural points of view to the city from all over the world.
This week, amongst all the established and independent labels which are showing, a marginal cultural fashion event on the calendar is already grabbing headlines.
At the fifth International Fashion Showcase at Somerset House, 80 designers from 24 countries have been invited to London to show their imagined ideal worlds in an exhibition named ' Fashion Utopias'.
Whereas New York, Milan and Paris are the strongholds of established brands and giant conglomerates, London, in its special position as a multicultural crossroads, took a bet on becoming a live environment for supporting and developing new businesses.
British fashion education has been a magnet for international students for decades. Many decide to stay and start businesses here, absorbed into a thriving mixed community of talent we now naturally think of 'London designers' rather than 'British'.
The UK fashion industry now makes a 26 billion ($37 billion) direct contribution to the home economy.
That is down to the fact that London has also become capital for international tourists and a domicile for the super wealthy over the last decade.
But in no small part, that London is replica van cleef wedding ring price seen as a uniquely vibrant source of creative originality is also a long term testament to something softer: trusting in the potential of the young and the value of inclusiveness.
The visitors who plunge into the packed show schedule this weekend will be experiencing that broad and mixed economy in action, and, if they look well enough, taking home food for thought.
Savage Beauty: The strange and stunning fashions of Alexander McQueen
Burberry will show in a tent in Kensington Gardens, and the Alexander McQueen show in the splendor of Whitehall.
Accessory brands will take the catwalk, the long established Mulberry, with Johnny Coca as the new creative director, and the successful burgeoning shoe designers Charlotte Olympia replica van cleef and arpels between the finger ring and Sophia Webster.
Fashion is a hard nosed commercial industry. Times are tough, and fashion, like every other business, feels the fear of global economic tremors. Yet this much we know in London: the answers to what the future will become always lies in what young people find relevant.
