What Surplus shows on the NHL board
- Proj/g — per-game fantasy points in your scoring; season value is that rate × eGP (Z in categories).
- VOB/g — season points above the last startable player at that position, shown per game. The sort still uses season VOB. The football missed-game haircut is not applied. ESPN rest-of-season totals are scaled before they blend with Marcel (Z/base in categories).
- Tier — a cliff in the VOB curve.
- ADP — where drafters typically take him.
- Δ pick — how many picks past your next turn he usually lasts.
- Surv% — chance he is still there at your next turn, from this room.
- eGP — expected games (skaters) or starts (goalies).
- Skt / Gl filters: C, LW, RW, D, G.
