Skater stats

Metric	What it means
GP	Games played in the view you're looking at (regular season or playoffs).
G	Goals. Pucks the player put in the net.
A	Assists. The last pass before a goal, plus the pass before that. Up to two assists credited per goal.
P	Points. Goals plus assists.
S / S%	Shots on goal · shooting percentage (goals / shots).
PPG	Power-play goals.
ixG	Individual expected goals. Sum of HighDanger xG values across every shot this player took. "How many goals should this player have scored based on shot quality?"
Finishing (G − ixG)	Actual goals minus expected. Positive = outscoring expectation (hot finish / sniper). Negative = underfinishing (snake-bitten / cold).
xGF% (5v5)	Share of expected goals the team gets while this player is on ice at 5v5. 50% = even. Above = team out-creates, below = team out-created. Team-quality stat, not individual.
xG diff (5v5)	Raw expected-goals differential. xGF − xGA while this player is on ice at 5v5. Same story as xGF% in absolute goals, not a share.
Primary P/60 (5v5)	Goals + primary assists (1st assist only) per 60 minutes at 5v5. Strips out the secondary-assist noise and the deployment-luck (more TOI = more raw points). The cleanest individual-impact stat in counting hockey.
Percentile bars	Where this skater ranks vs the NHL pool, split by position group (forwards vs defensemen) with 10+ GP regular season / 3+ GP playoffs. 90th percentile = better than 90% of pool. Green ≥75th, amber 50-74th, gray below.
Shot profile by type	Per-shot-type breakdown on skater cards: shots, goals, S%, ixG, Finishing split out by wrist / slap / snap / backhand / tip-in / etc. Shows which release types a shooter scores on. Mirror of the goalie xGA-by-type table.

Goalie stats

Metric	What it means
GP	Games played in the view you're looking at (regular season or playoffs).
W	Wins. The goalie of record when the team wins.
L	Regulation losses. The team lost while this goalie was on the ice at the buzzer.
OTL	Overtime or shootout losses. Still worth one point in the standings.
SV%	Save percentage. saves / shots-on-goal. .900 = stops 90% of shots faced.
GAA	Goals-against average. (goals against × 60) / minutes played. Lower is better.
SO	Shutouts (zero goals against in a full game).
xGA	Expected goals against. Sum of HighDanger xG across every shot the goalie faced. "How many goals should this goalie have given up?"
GSAx	Goals Saved Above Expected = xGA − GA. Positive = stopping more than league xG would predict (elite). Negative = bleeding goals. Removes team-defense bias from SV%. In playoffs, leverage shots count extra: 2x for any OT shot, any Game 7 shot, and shots in the last 2:00 of the 3rd while leading by 1. 1.5x for the last 2:00 of the 3rd while tied. Saves AND goals against carry the bonus, so the metric stays honest both ways.
Zone SV%	Save percentage broken down by where the shot came from. The 10-zone goal map (matchup view) shows shots faced + GA + SV% for each cell.
xGA by shot type	Per-type breakdown on goalie cards: shots faced, GA, SV%, and GSAx split out by wrist / slap / snap / backhand / tip-in / etc. Reveals which shot types a goalie handles vs which beat them. Built from the same xG model the headline GSAx uses.
Percentile bars	Where this goalie ranks vs the NHL pool (10+ GP regular season, 2+ GP playoffs). 90th percentile = better than 90% of pool.

Full methodology: /glossary. xG model trained on 455K shots across 4 seasons of NHL play-by-play. Empty-net attempts (opposing goalie pulled) are filtered everywhere.
