With-or-without-you
Who Leo plays with at 5v5, and how the shot-quality share moves when they are apart — a with-or-without-you read.
| Teammate | Together | xGF% with | xGF% apart | Swing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chris KreiderL | 571 min | 55.7 | 51.1 | +4.6 |
| Troy TerryR | 492 min | 56.1 | 51.6 | +4.5 |

5v5, real shift-overlap TOI; Corsi incl blocked, xG unblocked. “Apart” is that teammate’s share in the minutes he played without Leo, so the swing is a comparison of the same player in two situations rather than against the league. Pairs need 100 minutes together to appear at all, and a swing still carries whoever else was on the ice — it is a strong hint, not an isolated effect.

Scouting Take

On-ice impact mirrored side by side. Equal bars = balanced. Asymmetry = one-dimensional.
The Gap
45-pt spreadThe 45-point spread between offensive (90th) and defensive (45th) percentiles is extreme for a center. Elite offensive creation but defensive liability.

Roster
Top teammates by points on the Anaheim Ducks this season.
Bars are share of unblocked attempts — where he chooses to shoot, over a full season, which is the stable part. xG/100 compares his shot quality from a zone against the league rate for a forward. GAx is goals above expected there, a single season and noisy — zones marked * are flagged small-sample by the generator and are shown muted rather than hidden.
