This Season So Far
The 2025-26 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
20 goals and 14 assists in 74 games — 34 points at 14:30 a night, plus-12, with 3 power-play goals and 5 game-winning goals on 169 shots.
50.7 per cent of the expected goals at five-on-five, the 60th percentile. His ice went 39-23 against an expectation of 36.17-35.14 — twelve fewer goals conceded than the chances predicted, which is the largest defensive surplus of any forward on the roster.
The Finesse Game
169 attempts at a median of 27 feet with 34 per cent from inside 20, converting at 11.8 per cent for 20 goals — a career high.
14 assists in 74 games is the limitation. He is a straight-line player who gets to the net with speed and finishes what arrives; asked to make a play in a small space, he is ordinary.
The Physical Game
6-2 and 217 and he plays a hard, honest game. He forechecks first, he finishes checks, and he wins pucks along the wall.
27 penalty minutes in 74 games is a low rate for a player who plays this way. He is not nasty and he does not go looking for anything.
The Intangibles
Undrafted, and he played four seasons at Colgate and three in the American League before an NHL game at 26.
140 games and 59 points. He is 29, he scored 20 goals in his second full season, and on a club that spent a decade paying enormous money for wingers he is the cheapest useful one it has.

The eye and the numbers
HindsightThe two rank him within 5 points of one another. 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.
Both bars are percentiles among the 637 skaters in this edition with a report and enough ice time. The report bar ranks the mean of the grades above — 75 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.

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, 2024-25
- The club
- TOR took 50.2% of the expected goals as a club. His own share is 50.7% — 0.5 above the club he did it on.
- The role
- First line, 932 minutes at five-on-five — 50th percentile in ice time.
With and without
| Teammate | Together | Him apart | Mate apart |
|---|---|---|---|
| Max Domi | 46.9% | 53.4% | 50.3% |
| Morgan Rielly | 51.3% | 50.4% | 49.1% |
| Oliver Ekman-Larsson | 53.0% | 49.5% | 48.6% |
46.9% together, 53.4% for him apart and 50.3% for Domi apart. Both were better apart than together — the pairing was doing neither of them any favours.
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
226 unblocked shots in 2024-25, 20 of them goals. His median goal came from 19 feet. 35% of his shots came from inside twenty feet, 22% from beyond forty.
