teammates' average xGF%

39th percentile · higher = stronger linemates

28.2%

opponents' average ice-time share

16th percentile · higher = faces more top-line minutes

Sheltered minutes: mostly faces weaker opposition.

QoT averages the season xGF% of Sundqvist's 5v5 teammates; QoC averages how much of their team's ice time Sundqvist'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.
