With or without you (WOWY)
A skater's page shows how his team did with each teammate on the ice, and how each of them did apart. It's a good place to start asking questions, and a bad place to settle them.
For each teammate there are three shares: with the teammate (both on the ice), him without the teammate, and the teammate without him.
What it can't tell you. Teammates aren't paired at random. A coach puts two players together, often against the other team's best or for offensive-zone faceoffs, and apart they play with other linemates, against other opponents, from other starts. Nothing here takes teammates, competition or zone starts out, so a gap between with and without is a lead to follow, not a measure of who carries whom. Small samples swing, too: a few hundred minutes of xGF% still moves by several points.
At 5v5 a teammate needs 50 minutes together with him to be listed. A without split under the same floor is marked * and drawn faded on the chart: a few minutes apart isn't a comparison.
The nitty-gritty
With is counted attempt by attempt, from who was on the ice for each one. Without is his season (or the teammate's season with the same team) minus with, so the teammate's without includes games he missed. Every share is worked out from summed counts, never as an average of shares.
- I keep shifts as 5v5 pairs only, so at even strength, on the power play and short-handed there's no time together to measure. The floor there is shot attempts while both were on (100 at even strength, 50 on special teams). All situations shows 5v5: otherwise it would mix power-play units with lines.
- Hover a faded split for its minutes (or attempts). A teammate who was never on without him, or he without the teammate, has no without share at all; the chart says “always together”.
- Skaters only. A season shows up once every game he played is counted with who was on the ice.
