Skater shootouts: attempts, goals, misses, percentage and shootout-winning goals.

Reads the Swiss Ice Hockey Federation statistics API (data.sihf.ch, keyless JSON). SIHF keys a season by its END year (2026 = 2025-26). An unknown season, league_id or phase_id is never an error upstream (SIHF silently answers another one), so every table answer is checked against the body's own filter echo and refused when it differs. Every request is spaced at least one second from the last one to the host.

Usage

sihf_player_shootouts(season, league_id = 1L, phase_id = NULL, language = "en")

Arguments

season

Required. Season by its END year (2026 = 2025-26). A season SIHF does not have raises fastRhockey_no_data error (the API itself silently answers another one).

league_id

SIHF league id: 1 = National League, 2 = Swiss League, 100 = MyHockey League, 3 = 1. Liga, 43 = SWHL B, 113 = U21-Elit (the body's League filter lists them). An id SIHF does not have for the season raises fastRhockey_no_data error.

phase_id

SIHF phase id (regular season, a playoff round, ...; the body's Phase filter lists them). NULL = no phase filter: the season summary over every phase.

language

Response language. Only part of the body is translated: status, position and penalty names stay German.

Value

A fastRhockey_data tibble with 15 columns. A zero-row tibble with these columns when the payload holds no rows.

Errors

  • fastRhockey_no_data: SIHF answered 404 (unknown game), or ignored a requested season, league or phase and served another one.

  • fastRhockey_bad_request: SIHF answered 400 / 422, or an argument is invalid.

  • fastRhockey_asset_fetch: any other non-2xx answer or a dead connection after retries, an empty or unreadable body, a stub or redirect body, a table without its filter echo, a truncated table, or a gameoverview body for another game.
