The NHL's newest team, Utah HC, is holding an open contest involving hockey analytics, with the winner earning a paid position for half of Utah's first season
Are you really into hockey analytics? If so, you could earn yourself a paid position with the newest team in the National Hockey League, the Utah Hockey Club. Utah HC is holding an open challenge where the winner gets a paid internship.
The contest, dubbed the "Summer Analytics Challenge," is open to anyone in the United States and Canada.
"We are excited to engage analytical minds through the Summer Analytics Challenge that provides the opportunity to become involved with our organization in a unique way," said Bill Armstrong, general manager of Utah Hockey Club. "We look forward to seeing the great creativity and ideas challenge participants submit."
In order to enter the contest, Utah HC wants participants to pick a hockey topic of interest to study and analyze and compile their findings into a maximum five-page
deliverable, to include detailed analytics modelling, to be submitted to Utah Hockey Club by Friday, August 23 at 5 P.M. MT.
" All applications will be reviewed by Utah's hockey operations staff with the most qualified submissions being invited to present their reports virtually to General Manager Bill Armstrong in early September."
Utah, formerly the Arizona Coyotes, will play their first season in the NHL in 2024-25. Ryan Smith, owner of the Utah Jazz, purchased the team for $1.2 billion in April of this year.
