How to read Deployment WatchQuick guide

Usage changes shows share against season. Role changes compares the selected recent games with the preceding non-overlapping games on the same team.

Usage changes Recent PP or 5v5 share compared with season share, measured in percentage points.
Role changes Observed PP units and 5v5 usage bands compared between adjacent periods. These are not projected line combinations.
Early movement A role difference was observed, but there are too few games or PP opportunities to call it stable.
Emerging Repeated observations support the change, but the new role is not yet firmly established.
Confirmed Several recent games support the same role with adequate evidence. Not a guarantee of future usage.
PP share Player PP seconds divided by the team’s total PP time in the selected window.
5v5 share Player 5v5 seconds divided by the team’s total 5v5 time.
Overall Combined 5v5 + PP opportunity share; penalty-kill time excluded.

Recent opportunity share compared with the season baseline.
