One of the most prominent figures in hockey analytics is back in an NHL front office.
The New Jersey Devils hired Tyler Dellow as vice president of their new hockey analytics department, the club announced Tuesday.
Dellow will lead an analytics team that will work across all of the Devils' hockey operations departments, according to the club.
He most recently wrote columns for The Athletic after working as a consultant with the Edmonton Oilers from 2014-16.
Before joining the Oilers, Dellow was an influential blogger and one of the most significant contributors to the analytics movement in hockey.
