Shot blocking

Model-based

Not all blocks are equal: stepping in front of a point shot through traffic saves less than blocking a one-timer from the slot. Each block is valued at the xG the shot would have had if it had got through. Percentiles compare defencemen with enough 5-on-5 time.

How many, and how dangerous

Every defenceman with enough 5-on-5 time. Right means more blocks; up means the shots blocked were more dangerous. The curves join equal xG blocked per 60.

Where the shots come from

Model-based

Left: the player's own 5-on-5 attempts per 60, compared with the average at the position. Right: all of the team's attempts with the player on the ice, compared with the league.

Blue shows more attempts than average from that area. Both maps count attempts for, so blue is good on both.
