Overall P/GP Against opponent

    How it works

    A five-season, opponent-by-opponent lift

    Rate. A player’s overall points per game across the entire dataset is compared with their points per game against the selected opponent. The displayed lift is opponent P/GP minus overall P/GP.

    Games. Final regular-season and playoff games from 2021–22 through 2025–26 are included. Preseason games and shootout goals are excluded.

    Eligibility. A skater needs at least five games against an opponent and a positive differential. Arizona Coyotes, Utah Hockey Club, and Utah Mammoth results are treated as one Utah history.
