team_prospects: Access the prospects for a team and position

Description

team_prospects() retrieves the prospects for a team and position as a data.frame where each row represents player and includes detail on player identity, role, handedness, and biographical profile.

Usage

team_prospects(team = 1, position = "forwards")

Value

data.frame with one row per player

Arguments

team

integer ID (e.g., 21), character full name (e.g., 'Colorado Avalanche'), OR three-letter code (e.g., 'COL'); see teams() for reference; ID is preferable as there now exists duplicate three-letter codes (i.e., 'UTA' for 'Utah Hockey Club' and 'Utah Mammoth')

position

character of 'f'/'forwards', 'd'/'defensemen', or 'g'/'goalies'

Examples

COL_forward_prospects <- team_prospects(

  position = 'F'
)
