The Python NHL Reader, or just 'nhl' in the Python module repository, can provide a simple solution for a problem that has been around for ages: getting sport statistics without having to deal with complicated APIs or huge database files that need to be hosted locally.
The Python NHL Reader uses data on the public nhl.com website, ensuring programmers the data it retrieves is always up to date with the latest available statistics.
Developers have a pretty solid module to work with, allowing them to fetch various stat types or just all at once.

- Get stats for goalies
