Linemate and opposition quality

64th percentile · higher = stronger linemates
opponents' average ice-time share
52nd percentile · higher = faces more top-line minutes
Middle-of-the-lineup deployment: average linemates and opposition.
QoT averages the season xGF% of Chinakhov's 5v5 teammates; QoC averages how much of their team's ice time Chinakhov'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.
