Exercise 3.86 describes data on the number of penalty minutes for Ottawa Senators NHL players. The sample has a fairly large standard deviation, s = 49.1 minutes. Use StatKey or other technology to create a bootstrap distribution, estimate the standard error, and give a 95% confidence interval for the standard deviation of penalty minutes for NHL players. Assume that the data in OttawaSenators can be viewed as a reasonable sample of all NHL players.

Exercise 3.86

Table 3.4 on page 174 shows the number of points scored and penalty minutes for 24 ice hockey players on the Ottawa Senators NHL team for the 2009€“2010 season. The data are also stored in OttawaSenators. Assume that we consider these players to be a sample of all NHL players.
