Twenty-two goals in sixty-two games at thirty-three, on a club that had nothing else in tight.

This Season So Far

The 2023-24 season has not started. The empty row above is his, and both it and this paragraph fill in on their own from the morning after he first plays: what he has done, what it is worth against his own last season, and the run he is on when the two disagree.

Last Season

22 goals and 16 assists in 62 games — 38 points at 18:11 a night, minus-8, with 4 power-play goals on 132 shots, converting at 16.67 per cent, and 22 penalty minutes.

Twenty-two goals in sixty-two games is a 29-goal pace at thirty-three, and it was done on the worst club in hockey. 45.4 per cent of the expected goals at five-on-five over 791 minutes, the 23rd percentile — second-best among the forwards here.

His ice went 35-37 against an expectation of 33.31-40.12, which is close enough to say the results were earned.

The Finesse Game

132 attempts at a median of 18 feet, 54 per cent of them from inside 20 and 13 per cent from beyond 40. Nobody on this roster shoots from closer.

He scores in tight and he has scored in tight for thirteen years — 239 career goals and 37 game-winners, which is a genuinely useful number for a club that lost 47 games. The shot itself is ordinary at 87.5 mph; the position is the skill.

The Physical Game

6-0 and 195, and 251 penalty minutes in 830 games is a clean record for a centre who plays the middle of the ice.

The skating has gone: 21.5 mph at the 15th percentile, 0.4 bursts over twenty a game at the 18th. He gets to the net because he leaves early and reads it, not because he beats anybody there.

The Intangibles

Eighty-second overall in 2008, 830 games, 479 points, and a career defined by a run of overtime goals for New Jersey a decade ago that ended in a Final.

He is 33 and the second-most experienced player in the room. On a club this young, a centre who still scores twenty and can be put out for a defensive-zone draw is worth more to the development of Zegras and McTavish than to the standings — and he is the most tradeable veteran here.

What kind of player

The searchable half of the report. The first group is computed from the season's own data; the rest are read out of the prose above, and each one carries the sentence that produced it. A subject the report never raised is simply absent.

a strengthread out of the prose, and claimed

Each computed tag also says how well its measure holds up from one season to the next, because a tag describes a season that has finished and a reader will assume it predicts the one coming. Some do and some do not, and the gap is wide: five-on-five workload repeats well, scoring late does not repeat at all.

The numbers underneath

On the ice

Five-on-five, 2022-23 · 791 minutes

Expected goals: 45.4%; 23rd pct
Shot attempts: 45.9%; 23rd pct

Goals while he was on the ice: 35 for, 37 against. Expected: 33.3 and 40.1.

The eye and the numbers

Numbers

23rd

The report ranks him 46 points above where the numbers do. It was written for a back edition, with the seasons that followed already known. Neither the agreement nor the gap says anything about the eye, and this report is excluded from the club-level comparison for the same reason. Why the numbers land there sets out the club he did it on, the minutes he played and the men he played them with.

Both bars are percentiles among the 58 skaters in this edition with a report and enough ice time. The report bar ranks the mean of the grades above — 64 on their own scale — against every other report's mean. The numbers bar ranks his share of expected goals. A gap is a disagreement about where he belongs, not two scales talking past each other.

Usual linemates

2022-23 · 791 minutes at five-on-five

Share of his five-on-five ice time spent alongside each player, measured from shift charts. Special teams are excluded: a power-play unit is not a line.

Why the numbers land there

Five-on-five, 2022-23

The club: ANA took 39.7% of the expected goals as a club. His own share is 45.4% — 5.7 above the club he did it on.
The role: Second line, 791 minutes at five-on-five — 39th percentile in ice time.

With and without

Teammate	Together	Him apart	Mate apart
Troy Terry	46.7%	42.6%	44.1%
Trevor Zegras	48.2%	41.6%	40.2%
Cam Fowler	47.6%	43.8%	40.5%

46.7% together, 42.6% for him apart and 44.1% for Terry apart. He was worse away from Terry, who was no better away from him — he needed that pairing more than Terry did.

Expected-goal share while both were on the ice, and for each man in the minutes he played without the other. Apart is the pair subtracted from his own totals. It does not settle who was carrying whom — apart from each other, both were still playing with somebody — but it does say whether the share travelled when the pairing broke up.

Where he shoots from

goal on goal missed

174 unblocked shots in 2022-23, 23 of them goals. His median goal came from 14 feet. 55% of his shots came from inside twenty feet, 13% from beyond forty.
