What the two axes are

Power-play expected goals per game. Expected goals on the power play per game. It rewards drawing penalties as well as a dangerous power play.

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 →
