Even-Strength Offensive Impact
Tracks who is on the ice when there is an even-strength goal for. By comparing the team's tagged on-ice goals for to each player's individual presence, we can see who is repeatedly attached to scoring outcomes at even strength.
This shows where goals-for involvement is concentrated.

A traditional Plus is a raw counting stat that can easily hide the fuller picture of a player's offensive impact. If a player misses games due to injury or tournament scheduling, their raw plus count stalls, making it look like their offensive production dropped off.
By converting raw presence into On-Ice GF per game, you create a more revealing rate metric for comparing offensive generation across different schedules.
Three Reasons On-Ice GF/Game is a More Revealing Metric
It Standardizes Volatility Across Schedules: Because a traditional plus is a raw cumulative total, players who play fewer games can be unfairly penalized on the team leaderboard. Dividing on-ice goals for by games played creates a fairer comparison, helping you compare every skater's on-ice scoring impact across different schedules.
It Measures Goal-Generation Pace: A raw plus count only tells you the total history. On-Ice GF per game shows how many goals your team averages per night whenever that specific player crosses the boards, giving you a clear look at your game-to-game scoring pace.
It Exposes High-Volume Scoring Engines: A player who was on the ice for 4 goals over a 12-game stretch and a player who was on the ice for 4 goals over a 2-game weekend tournament both have a traditional score of +4. This metric exposes the important difference in scoring pace, placing the weekend player at a high-impact 2.0 goals per game and the other at a lower-impact 0.3 goals per game.
