With-or-without-you
Who Ryan 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 |

| Roman JosiD | 104 min | 45.3 | — | — |
5v5, real shift-overlap TOI; Corsi incl blocked, xG unblocked. “Apart” is that teammate’s share in the minutes he played without Ryan, 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.

On-ice impact mirrored side by side. Equal bars = balanced. Asymmetry = one-dimensional.
The Gap
64-pt spreadThe 64-point spread between offensive (82th) and defensive (18th) percentiles is extreme for a center. Elite offensive creation but defensive liability.

Top teammates by points on the Nashville Predators 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.
