What the two axes are

Expected goals for per 60 (5-on-5). Expected goals created per 60 minutes of five-on-five play: how many goals an average finisher would score on these chances.

Penalty kill %. Share of times shorthanded that ended without a goal against. It says nothing about how many penalties a club takes.

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 →
