Linemate and opposition quality
2024-25 · 5v5 · 222 min on ice · ranked against 274 defencemen · last season, until this season has enough games to rank
teammates' average xGF%
18th percentile · higher = stronger linemates
opponents' average ice-time share
4th percentile · higher = faces more top-line minutes
Sheltered minutes: mostly faces weaker opposition.
QoT averages the season xGF% of Callahan's 5v5 teammates; QoC averages how much of their team's ice time Callahan'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.
