What the two axes are
Faceoff %. Share of faceoffs won, all zones and situations.
Ability to win. Recent win rate with newer games weighted more and every overtime or shootout game counted as a tie.
A lower-is-better measure is drawn with its axis flipped, so the best clubs are always up and to the right. The dashed lines are the league median; r is how closely the two measures move together across the 32 clubs. Methodology →
