OUR METHODOLOGY

A transparent rating, not a prediction.

The IHM 0-100 rating prioritises official NHL regular-season scoring pace and supplements it with recent production, shots, recorded defensive actions, position-aware ice time, form and consistency. +/- has a small contextual role and is never treated as proof of defensive quality. Three imported regular-season games are required for eligibility; comparisons of role changes need six games per player.

It measures recorded recent usage and contribution, not a player’s overall talent, a confirmed promotion to a particular line, an official NHL ranking or a guaranteed future result. Data expands gradually during the season import.
