Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Artifact Description
The Montreal Canadians earned the National Hockey League’s 1993 Stanley Cup, which would be the last time a Canadian team won. The purpose of this research is to explore the potential relationship between the Soviet Union’s 1991 collapse and the Stanley Cup’s winning teams by comparing National Hockey League (NHL) players from former Soviet states on American versus Canadian teams between the 1990-91, 2007-08, and 2018-19 seasons. The chi-square results showed players from former Soviet states increased from the 1990-91 to the 2007-08 seasons for both American and Canadian teams; however, they decreased for both American and Canadian teams from the 2007-08 to the 2018-19 season. This decrease may be explained by the 2008 founding of the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL), a Eurasian hockey league mainly based in Russia. These results shifted the analysis focus to if former Soviet states players were paid larger salaries by American teams than Canadian teams, which could create a preference for playing on American teams. A two-way ANOVA comparing player nationalities, salaries, and whether they played for an American or Canadian team for the 2007-08 and 2017-18 seasons found no significant salary difference. However, 2007-08 season players from former Soviet and western European states were paid more than players from North America.
