Seasons from 2016-17 on; earlier seasons are not in this data.
Production
Points per game
His points and goals per game played, all situations, beside the points per game of the defense average: every regular of his position pooled, a regular being a skater who played at least half his team's games. A season still being played is dashed.
Goals and expected goals
His goals and the expected goals of his own shots (ixG) per game played, all situations, beside the goals per game of the defense average. Goals above ixG is finishing, or luck.
Role and ice time
Ice time per game
His time on the ice per game played in all situations, beside the defense average's at the same strength: every regular of his position pooled.
Offensive-zone starts
The share of his 5v5 offensive- and defensive-zone faceoff starts taken in the offensive zone, beside the defense average. A start counts only where his shift began at the faceoff.
Top-line competition
How much of his 5v5 ice against the opposition's forwards came against their top tier, each club's forwards tiered by how it had deployed them to date, beside the defense average. Higher is harder competition.
Play-driving
On-ice xG share at 5v5
His team's share of the 5v5 expected goals while he was on the ice, beside the defense average. Unadjusted: it includes his linemates and his team, which is why the adjusted rating sits beside it.
Adjusted rating
His adjusted net rating: the expected goals per 60 minutes his team gains with him on the ice at 5v5, created less conceded, over a league-average skater; the sd in the tooltip is the rating's uncertainty. One rating per season pools the regular season and playoffs, so it reads the same on both. The defense average is over regular-season regulars.
