Player per-game averages
Each stat is the rostered skaters' combined output — summed across players, divided by their total games played — i.e. the average of the players' individual per-game production, not the team's per-game total. Shown vs the league average, with the change from the previous (2025-26) roster.

Lost to expansion
How much of Minnesota Frost's 2025-26 regular-season output left with the players poached in expansion — the hole the team has to fill. Shares are each player's (or the group's) total as a percentage of the team total. On-ice xG (expected goals for / against while the player was on the ice) is two-way context, not a team share.
Minnesota Frost's 5 departed skaters accounted for 31% of team goals, 37% of points, 32% of shots, 34% of blocks, and 46% of hits.
Who left vs who's arriving — per game
The departed cohort's 2025-26 PWHL production against the incoming class (6 draft picks), as per-game rates. Incoming rates are each player's established pace in their own league — PWHL arrivals are directly comparable; college/European draftees post a higher pace against weaker competition, so their side is not competition-adjusted (read it as a ceiling, not a forecast).
