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.
Why he earned it — his rank among forwards
Goals per 60
3.94
93th
Two-Way Forward
A forward trusted at both ends — solid offense and genuine chance suppression. A balanced game rather than an elite specialty.

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.
