Reading the board

Totals
Ranked by season total.
Per Game
Ranked by per-game rate (a total divided by games played).
/ gm
Per game: the stat divided by the games the skater played.
↑ / ↓
How many places a skater moves when the board is ranked by per-game rate instead of totals. ↑ rises, ↓ falls.
Pace
The per-game leader, called out when it is a different skater than the totals leader.
Climber
The top-rate skater who gains the most places from the totals order to the per-game order - a scorer the raw totals underrate.
clear
How far ahead the leader finished, over second place.
min GP
The games-played cutoff to qualify for the per-game board, so a short hot streak cannot top it.
