Skater Quality of Teammate and Quality of Competition


Below you will find definitions for all stats available on the Skater QoT/QoC page.

Each QoT/QoC metric is a weighted average of a player’s teammates’ or opponents’ metric where the weights are the percentage of time a teammate spent playing with a player (QoT) or playing against a player (QoC). For example, TOI/GP QoT is the weighted average of all player’s teammates’ TOI/GP (weighted by percentage of time with teammate or opponent).

The full writeup for this methodology can be found here [future link]

Notes:

  • RAPM, GAR, and xGAR data is only available at EV, PP, and SH strength states. If 5v5 is selected, the RAPM, GAR, and xGAR metrics displayed are from the EV strength state (same for 5v4 with PP and 4v5 with SH)
  • Negative values for RAPM CA/60 and RAPM xGA/60 indicate stronger defensive performance (teammates or oppponents)
  • Positive values for Def GAR/60 and Def xGAR/60 indicate stronger defensive performance (teammates or oppponents)
  • If Z-Scores are selected to be displayed (from the “Display” dropdown), positive values indicate stronger offensive and defensive performance for all metrics (RAPM CA/60 and RAPM xGA/60 are inverted)

 

General Terms:

Metric Definition
RAPM Regularized Adjusted Plus-Minus
GAR Goals Above Replacement
xGAR Expected Goals Above Replacement
Z-Score Also called “Standard Score” – a method to transform all metrics so they are on the same scale. These are interpreted as standard deviations above or below the mean. All Z-Scores are centered around the positional mean (F or D)

 

Quality of Teammate (QoT):

Metric Definition
TM # The total number of teammates a player played with in the selected season
TOI/GP Time on Ice per Game Played QoT
TOI% Time on Ice Percentage QoT (Time on Ice Percentage is defined as the percentage of available minutes a player played)
RAPM C±/60 RAPM Corsi Differential per 60 Minutes QoT (Even Strength only)
RAPM xG±/60 RAPM Expected Goal Differential per 60 Minutes QoT (Even Strength only)
GAR/60 Total GAR per 60 Minutes QoT (Strength state dependent – EV is EVO GAR + EVD GAR, PP is PPO GAR, and SH is SHD GAR)
xGAR/60 Total xGAR per 60 Minutes QoT (Strength state dependent – EV is EVO GAR + EVD GAR, PP is PPO GAR, and SH is SHD GAR)
RAPM CF/60 RAPM Corsi For per 60 Minutes QoT
RAPM CA/60 RAPM Corsi Against per 60 Minutes QoT
RAPM xGF/60 RAPM Expected Goals For per 60 Minutes QoT
RAPM xGA/60 RAPM Expected Goals Against per 60 Minutes QoT
Off GAR/60 Offense GAR per 60 Minutes QoT
Def GAR/60 Defense GAR per 60 Minutes QoT
Off xGAR/60 Offense xGAR per 60 Minutes QoT
Def xGAR/60 Defense xGAR per 60 Minutes QoT

 

Quality of Competition (QoC):

Metric Definition
Opp # The total number of opponents a player played against in the selected season
TOI/GP Time on Ice per Game Played QoC
TOI% Time on Ice Percentage QoC (Time on Ice Percentage is defined as the percentage of available minutes a player played)
RAPM C±/60 RAPM Corsi Differential per 60 Minutes QoC
RAPM xG±/60 RAPM Expected Goal Differential per 60 Minutes QoC
GAR/60 Total GAR per 60 Minutes QoC (Strength state dependent – EV is EVO GAR + EVD GAR, PP is PPO GAR, and SH is SHD GAR)
xGAR/60 Total xGAR per 60 Minutes QoC (Strength state dependent – EV is EVO GAR + EVD GAR, PP is PPO GAR, and SH is SHD GAR)
RAPM CF/60 RAPM Corsi For per 60 Minutes QoC
RAPM CA/60 RAPM Corsi Against per 60 Minutes QoC
RAPM xGF/60 RAPM Expected Goals For per 60 Minutes QoC
RAPM xGA/60 RAPM Expected Goals Against per 60 Minutes QoC
Off GAR/60 Offense GAR per 60 Minutes QoC
Def GAR/60 Defense GAR per 60 Minutes QoC
Off xGAR/60 Offense xGAR per 60 Minutes QoC
Def xGAR/60 Defense xGAR per 60 Minutes QoC
