I dont think anything really useful is going to come out publicly for awhile

I imagine most teams are already using things like SportVu, but until it can be tracked in shot quality/scoring chances etc.

for example look at the Sedins, they will at times have a shift with 1.5-2 minutes of zone time, but because they are looking for the perfect shot it might end up with 2 shot attempts, both A+ quality chances

yet the stats now would say a shift where someone took a shot from center ice on the goalie, the puck bounced to the corner off his pads and was thrown back at the net for an easy glove save, is essentially the same shift in advanced stats

it can't work like that
