What the two axes are
Shooting %. Goals per shot on goal. Over one season much of the gap between clubs is luck, not finishing skill.
Team save %. One minus goals against over shots against, for the whole club. Empty-net goals count against it, so it reads a little lower than the goalies' own save percentages.
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 →
