gp games played · min minutes played · g goals. All three are career totals across every competition on record, not just the ones played near here.
Minutes were not recorded at all in the ASL, the original NASL or the indoor leagues, so a career spent there shows games and no minutes. Totals are summed from what the record holds — see the coverage note.
