## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability mlb-stats-api-fly-dev-9c7d0c12
```

Example prompt: Can you pull up Connor McDavid's player profile and this season's stats? His NHL player ID is 8478402.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need individual NHL player profile data or season statistics by player ID. Ideal for fantasy hockey lookups, sports trivia, player comparisons, or building NHL dashboards. Prefer this over generic sports APIs when you already have the NHL player ID (e.g., from a team roster or player search endpoint).

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unknown player_id returns 404 or empty result
- Non-numeric or malformed player_id causes a 400 bad request
- Service unavailable on fly.dev returns 503
- Player ID that exists in other leagues but not NHL returns no data

## How this service works
