Gravity Tiers

Gravity v3 reports three bounded, position-relative zone masses — an offensive-zone well, a neutral-zone transition-proxy well, and a defensive-zone dome. The field is a model visualization of those components, not an observed player-tracking heatmap. Reliability is a coverage/stability index rather than a probability, and missing evidence shrinks the estimate toward neutral. Signal Stability is based mainly on current-versus-baseline on-off agreement, with a legacy defenseman pair-driver adjustment; it is not a fitted portability model. The public situation label is MIXED SITUATIONS because v3 combines all-situations, 5v5, 5-on-4, 4-on-5, and regular-season EDGE aggregate inputs.

X-NAV

Extended Net Asset Value: the Ledger's skater trade-value model. Offense, defense, gravity, age curve, contract surplus, deployment, Point Shares, and role context priced into one number.

G-NAV

X-NAV for goalies. Built around GSAx, workload, save profile, team defensive context, age, and contract surplus.

Prospect NAV

Pre-NHL value comes from draft pedigree and stored NHLe production. No-signal ELC players do not receive automatic cap or age value.

OFF / DEF

On-ice components: offensive production and creation on one side, suppression and defensive value on the other, each judged against position.

GRAV

The X-NAV handoff from Gravity v3. It contains only the bounded neutral-zone transition proxy; direct offense and defensive suppression are valued elsewhere.

Modelled Field

The warped rink is a visualization generated from three model components. It is not an observed tracking heatmap or a map of puck trajectories.

Signal Stability

A v3 heuristic based mainly on current-versus-baseline on-off agreement, with a legacy defenseman pair-driver adjustment. It does not estimate portability.

Reliability

A 0–100 v3 sample, stability, and data-coverage index. It is not a calibrated probability.

Data Coverage

The share of fixed v3 zone weight backed by present inputs. Missing evidence shrinks an estimate toward neutral and lowers reliability.

Mixed Situations

Gravity v3 combines all-situations, 5v5, 5-on-4, 4-on-5, and regular-season EDGE aggregate inputs. It is not a single-strength model.

CAP

Contract component. Positive means the player is under market value; negative means the cap hit or term drags value.

AGE / YNG

Age-curve component: decline drag for veterans, youth projection for young NHL players with enough real signal. Not a blanket ELC bonus.

UPS

Upside component — development ceiling for players whose trajectory has not fully priced into production yet.

Negative NAV

Negative value does not mean a bad player. It means the contract is a trade liability relative to expected production, term, and market fit.

STRAND

Stylistic Trait & Rating Analysis for NHL Development: a team/player identity view for role fit, timeline, and roster balance.

SCR

Scoring pace. Points per 82 games, normalized by position so defencemen and forwards are not judged on the same raw scale.

xG

Expected-goals creation from shot quality and volume, not just shot count.

TOI+

Ice-time trust and role load. Heavy minutes imply broader usage and higher coaching trust.

SUPP

Expected-goals-against suppression relative to teammates. Positive means the team leaks fewer chances with that player on ice.

QoC Index

0-100 even-strength deployment difficulty based on matchup and usage context.

DZ%

Defensive-zone start share. High usage here can indicate trusted defensive deployment.

HD Finish

High-danger finishing vs league expectation, from NHL EDGE shot-location data. Positive = converts quality chances above league rate.

20+ Bursts

Count of 20+ mph skating bursts from NHL EDGE tracking — a direct speed-in-game signal, not a one-off top speed.

AGE

Development and decline curve over the life of the contract.

Puck-Moving Anchor

D — clean exits and controlled entries; play travels north on his stick, not off the glass.

Neutral Zone Engine

F — carries through center ice for controlled entries; the transition game runs through him.

High-Danger Distributor

Seeks cross-seam and low-to-high passes that create high-probability chances.

Rush Weapon

Counterattack specialist — top-end speed and finishing on odd-man rushes.

Slot Hunter

Off-puck movement into soft high-danger slot ice for quick shots and deflections.

Net-Front Disruptor

Screens, tips, and low-slot rebounds — goalie sightlines are never clean.

Volume Shooter

Drives offense by directing pucks at net relentlessly.

Forecheck Monster

Offensive-zone recoveries and forced turnovers sustain possession.

Perimeter Lockdown

D — forces rushes outside and denies clean blue-line entries.

Complete Shutdown

C — suppresses opponent expected goals while on the ice; the trusted matchup assignment.

Floor Raiser

High usage — carries a lineup through transition, minutes, and self-created offense.

Ceiling Raiser

Adaptable elite complement — suppression, forechecking, or off-puck play that elevates a top line.

Workhorse Wall

G — starter workload with saves above expected; the net is his every night.

High-Danger Eraser

G — elite on grade-A chances; the slot shot that beats most goalies gets erased.

Storm Cellar

G — positive GSAx behind a leaky defense; keeps the scoreboard respectable.

Tandem Weapon

G — split workload with elite efficiency per start; wins his half of the calendar.

GM Audit

Checks clauses, cap legality, retention, roster slots, surplus gaps, timeline alignment, and contention-window fit.

EWA

Estimated Wins Added: translates asset value into standings impact, adjusted by team context.

CWI

Contention Window Index: estimates whether a trade extends, compresses, or harms a team's competitive window.

REQUESTED

Formal trade request. Positive X-NAV receives a small leverage haircut.

SHOPPED

Available or being explored by the team. No automatic X-NAV penalty.

UNTCH

Untouchable availability gate. Value remains visible, but proposal logic treats the player as unavailable.

Role Tags

First-line, middle-six, top-pair, shutdown, starter, tandem, backup, and specialist tags summarize usage/value tier.

NHL API

Rosters, positions, ages, game logs, current-season summary data, and NHL EDGE tracking (zone time, speed, shot location).

MoneyPuck

Skater and goalie analytics including xG, deployment, on/off impact, and GSAx inputs. An indispensable public resource.

CapWages

Contract, cap hit, term, clause, extension, and roster metadata source.

Hockey-Reference

Point Shares and historical context for career baselines.

NHLe

Non-NHL production translated to NHL point pace for prospects. It must come from stored or imported production data.

AI Notes

AI is used for narrative explanation only; X-NAV and Gravity calculations stay in deterministic app code.
