The skill leverages a command-line interface (CLI) for optimal performance and avoids potential import path issues.

- To quickly check today's NHL game scores.
- When needing to view conference or division standings for a specific season.
- To find the roster of a particular NHL team.
- For accessing detailed game summaries, including box scores and scoring plays.
