Last Season
Seventeen goals and eight assists in 66 games — 25 points, minus-nine, at 11:28 a night with three power-play goals.
The Finesse Game
A shooter and very little else. A hundred and forty-four unblocked attempts, seventeen goals, median 26 feet with 44 per cent from inside twenty.
Seventeen goals in eleven and a half minutes a night is a genuinely high rate and it is the second season running he has done it.
Eight assists in 66 games is close to the bottom of this edition. A hundred and twenty-one points in 367 career games, sixty-three of them goals.
The Physical Game
Six foot one, 190, and he goes to the net without much weight to bring. Twenty penalty minutes.
He is not a checker, does not win pucks, and the entire proposition is finding a soft spot and shooting from it.
The Intangibles
Forty-six point five per cent of the expected goals, 21st percentile, and 44.6 per cent of the shot attempts, tenth percentile, across 696 minutes.
That is a poor possession season, and seventeen goals in eleven minutes is a good one. Both are true and the club has to decide which it is buying.
Four points in his last ten, three of them goals. He is 29, a fifth-round pick, and one of the more useful thirteen-goal-a-year men available at a deadline.
