90th percentile · higher = faces more top-line minutes

Hard minutes: tough opponents with little help from linemates.

QoT averages the season xGF% of Bahl's 5v5 teammates; QoC averages how much of their team's ice time Bahl's opponents get, so a high QoC means facing top lines. Both are weighted by time shared on the ice, lean on last season for small samples, and are ranked within forwards or defence.
