Points show how much a player contributes to scoring, but they do not tell the whole story. These three charts compare goals and assists, shots and shooting percentage, and points with plus/minus.
This chart compares the goals and assists of the ten highest point scorers in the dataset.
Insight: Nathan MacKinnon leads with 37 points, including 17 goals and 20 assists. The chart shows how players can reach similar point totals through different combinations of scoring and playmaking.
This scatter plot compares shot volume with shooting accuracy for the top fifteen players.
Insight: Taking more shots does not always mean having a higher shooting percentage. The scatter plot makes it easy to compare both measures and notice players who stand out.
This chart shows plus/minus for the same fifteen top point scorers.
Insight: Some high scorers have a negative plus/minus. Connor McDavid has 33 points but a -5 rating. This shows that offensive production and plus/minus measure different parts of a player's performance.
