This Season So Far
The 2026-27 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
7 goals and 18 assists in all 82 games — 25 points, even in plus-minus, at 21:22 a night with 42 penalty minutes. His 1,012th career game.
The Finesse Game
Almost none. 149 unblocked attempts from a median of 57 feet, with 4 per cent from inside 20 and 79 per cent from beyond 40, and 7 goals came out of it.
59 goals in 1,012 career games. 18 assists is a fair year for a defenceman who exists to retrieve the puck and hand it to somebody better.
The Physical Game
6-3, 207, and one of the more physically reliable defenders of his generation — he finishes checks, blocks shots, owns his crease, and has played 82 games in a season more than once at 33.
42 penalty minutes across a full year of hard minutes is disciplined.
The Intangibles
44.7 per cent of the expected goals, 13th percentile, and 44.8 per cent of the shot attempts, also 11th, across 1,509 minutes — the heaviest workload on the club.
The chances went 54.9 for and 68.0 against. Even in plus-minus is a considerably better result than that deserved, and Seattle’s goaltending is the reason.
4 points in his last 10, 2 of them goals. He is 33, the fourth pick in 2011, and has spent 15 seasons being handed the other team’s best line on bad hockey clubs. This is what that costs a player’s numbers, and it has never much bothered him.
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.
- measuredcomputed here from the season's own data
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 eye and the numbers
SightedThe report ranks him 25 points above where the numbers do. It was written with these numbers on screen and departs from them anyway, which makes the gap a judgment rather than an oversight. 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 656 skaters in this edition with a report and enough ice time. The report bar ranks the mean of the grades above — 70 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.

A top speed is a season's best, and a man who takes more shifts gets more tries at one; the percentile is the feed's own, against every skater, and says less between a top-pair defenceman and a fourth-line wing than it does between two men in the same job. The counts are shown per game for the same reason.

Why the numbers land there
Five-on-five, 2025-26
- The club
- SEA took 46.0% of the expected goals as a club. His own share is 44.7% — 1.3 below the club he did it on.
- The role
- First pair, 1,509 minutes at five-on-five — 98th percentile in ice time.
With and without
| Teammate | Together | Him apart | Mate apart |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vince Dunn | 44.3% | 46.1% | 48.5% |
| Chandler Stephenson | 38.2% | 48.1% | 38.7% |
| Matty Beniers | 46.8% | 43.7% | 47.4% |
44.3% together, 46.1% for him apart and 48.5% for Dunn apart. Dunn was better away from him while his own share held, which is a mark against him more than for him.
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
149 unblocked shots in 2025-26, 7 of them goals. His median goal came from 46 feet. 4% of his shots came from inside twenty feet, 79% from beyond forty.
