60th percentile · higher = tougher opponents

Plays with stronger-than-usual linemates.

Each value is the ice-time-weighted average season xGF% of the skaters Hagel shared the 5v5 ice with. Small samples lean on each skater's previous season (or 50% for newcomers). Most skaters land between about 45% and 55% for QoT and 49% and 51% for QoC, so the percentile is the easier read.
