Small sample. The typical team here has played 1 game, so the bars below only rank the 12 teams that have played against each other, and the percentile numbers are hidden until the typical team reaches 10 games. Read the raw counts.
How to read this map
One rink, both ends: what NYI generates on the left, what it concedes on the right. Every attempt is a Gaussian bump of height = its model xG, summed per game. The controls switch the surface (xG heatmap ↔ vs league, the league baseline at the same strength) and the markers: × goal · • on net · ◦ missed · small • blocked.
The page opens at 5v5; empty-net attempts are excluded throughout, and the strength buckets segregate them anyway — which is why the empty-net control greys out unless the view can actually contain one. Everything inside the outlined box moves with the filters; everything below it does not.
