Model Card

Neutral-context sum of Points For Elo and Points Prevention Elo. This is the cleanest interpretable 2D replacement for 'offense points created / defense points prevented' before moving to richer vector models.

Validation here is out of sample. From two weeks into each season, a model trained on earlier games predicts each following week without learning from that week. Predictions use the players' observed minutes; each point is the minutes-weighted predicted and actual rate in that player's games. The source inputs were not verified as identical to the published model revision.
