Limited view. Scores below are volume-only production indices, not population percentiles. Connect a warehouse with on-ice 5v5 data to see true possession, chance-creation, and zone-deployment percentiles.

  • Goal-scoring index0.22 · 35 index

    Volume-only: goals per game from NHL API. Not adjusted for ice time, deployment, or quality of competition.

  • Playmaking index0.35 · 46 index

    Volume-only: assists per game from NHL API. Not on-ice; doesn't separate primary vs secondary.

  • Point-production index0.57 · 45 index

    Volume-only: points per game from NHL API. Treat as a star-power proxy, not a process measure.
