I tried to make sense of Andrew Berkshire's top 20 lists in one big table. If you don't know what I'm referring to, it's these top 20 "by the numbers" lists for centers, left wingers, right wingers, and defencemen that were posted to Sportsnet:
http://www.sportsnet.ca/author/andrew-berkshire/
While the top 20 rankings were given a different weight depending on each position, the 3 categories seemed to be consistent calculations. Each of the 3 categories were comprised (by an unknown weight) of:
Offence: 5-vs-5 and powerplay goals/60, primary assists/60, secondary assists/60, shot attempts/60, scoring chances/60, scoring chance generating plays/60, relative team goals for/60.
Defence: 5-vs-5 and shorthanded loose puck recoveries, defensive plays (hits, stickchecks, pass blocks, and shot blocks), relative team shot attempts against/60, relative team goals against/60, quality of teammates, and quality of competition.
Transition: 5-vs-5 shot attempt differential, relative shot attempt differential, possession driving plays/60, controlled entry rate, controlled exit rate, completed passes/60, and pass success rate.
The table below comprises of each player's normalized score out of 100 for all 3 categories, along with how far ahead (or behind) each player is relative to the average score of the top 20 at their position.
For example, the average defensive score among the top 20 D-men was 57.4. So Brodie's +/- with his 60.3 score for defence would be: 60.3 - 57.4 = +2.9. The average score among all 80 players on here was 50.9, but I only looked at each position's average rating to try to keep things more consistent depending on biases for each position.
To sort +/- properly, click on each heading 3 times until you see the lowest score at the top. For whatever reason, that's the only way to sort everything properly in a uniform order.
