What the two axes are

Win chance vs an average team. Our power rating: the chance of beating a league-average club on neutral ice. It is built from team results and cannot see a trade or an injury until games are played.

Goal difference per game. Goals for minus goals against, per game.

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 →
