The global sports industry is extremely competitive. We focus on ice hockey and propose a (largely) costless reform to its operations that can potentially enhance the sport’s popularity by increasing the number of goals. The reform optimizes a logistic convention on the use of on-ice sides and off-ice benches, which affects the amount of attacking play and within-game scoring dynamics through the players’ substitutions. Using several empirical approaches, we provide estimates of the resulting scoring rise for all 11 geographically diverse competitions in our unique dataset. They are sizeable and robust to a number of checks, making case for trialling the reform in some (lower-tier) ice-hockey league.

修复冰球的低分另一面?只需翻转两侧

全球体育产业竞争异常激烈。我们专注于冰球,并提议对其运营进行(基本上)无成本的改革,通过增加目标数量来潜在地提高这项运动的受欢迎程度。改革优化了关于使用冰场边和场外板凳的后勤惯例,这通过球员的换人影响了进攻的数量和比赛内的得分动态。使用几种经验方法,我们提供了对我们独特数据集中所有 11 场不同地域比赛的得分上升的估计。它们在许多检查中规模庞大且稳健,为在某些(低级别)冰球联赛中试行改革提供了理由。
