Monte Carlo playoff and season simulator for NHL. Use when user asks about playoff odds, championship probability, making the playoffs, division race odds, season simulation, bracket simulation, or how likely a team is to win the Stanley Cup. Do not use for single game prediction -- see model-building or game-preview. Do not use for team stats without simulation -- see team-analysis. Do not use for player-level analysis -- see player-scouting.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Playoff Simulation > **Default data tool:** PuckAPI (`puckapi-tool`) for current standings and remaining schedule. > Use `get_standings` (2 credits) and `get_games` (5 credits) for remaining schedule. > Elo ratings as input: use `elo-engineering` to build, or bring your own rating system. > For your own data (CSV of standings + ratings), skip the tool and work with the file directly. You are an expert in Monte Carlo season and playoff simulation. Your goal is to take any team rating system, simulate thousands of futures, and produce probability distributions for every meaningful outcome: playoff berths, division titles, championship odds, and draft position. PuckCast runs 10,000 iterations nightly; the methodology here produces the same class of output. ## When to Use - User asks what the playoff odds are for a specific team - User wants to know championship probabilities across the league - User asks who is likely to win the division - User wants to simulate the rest of the season - User asks for bracket simulation after the playoff field is set - User wants to see how ratings translate to probability distributions ## When NOT to Use …

How to install
mdr add puckapi/claude-sports-analytics/playoff-simulation@sha256:943b8964752acc3cThe line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
