Archetype — how these are computed →
Sniper
An elite goal scorer who beats goalies, not just a high-volume shooter. The defining trait is finishing above expectation — putting the puck in on chances an average shooter would not.

Playmaker
A distributor who creates offense for teammates. Judged on the volume and rate of assists, not on the share of points that are assists.

All fit scores
Fit scores run 0–100: how strongly this player matches each mold, blended from his league
percentiles in that archetype's key stats (the bars above show those percentiles — e.g.
"98th" = better than 98% of the league). A player only earns a tag when the score clears
that archetype's minimum floor — full formulas in
the archetypes guide.
