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
2 goals and 5 assists in 25 games for 7 points, minus-3, on 12:08 a night.
41.2 per cent at five-on-five, the 3rd percentile, over 289 minutes — a team number in a small sample. 54 per cent of his shots came from inside 20 feet at a median of 15, which is the useful observation.
The Finesse Game
Modest and correctly directed. 27 shots in 25 games is low volume and all of it comes from close range; the hands are functional in tight and there is no rush game.
5 assists in 25 games is not enough to judge. Nothing suggests a scorer.
The Physical Game
6-4 and 218, and this is the case for him. He goes to the net, wins pucks below the goal line, and is difficult to move once he decides where to stand.
17 penalty minutes in 25 games is a high rate and reads as a young player finding the edge.
The Intangibles
A second-round pick, a brother in the league, a serious shoulder injury that cost him a full season, and a first NHL stretch at 22.
The realistic projection is a third-line net-front forward. On a club with this much ice time available he will get a real chance to become it.

The eye and the numbers
HindsightThe report ranks him 49 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 357 skaters in this edition with a report and enough ice time. The report bar ranks the mean of the grades above — 73 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

- The club
- CHI took 43.2% of the expected goals as a club. His own share is 41.2% — 2.0 below the club he did it on.

- 289 minutes at five-on-five — 5th percentile in ice time.
With and without
| Teammate | Together | Him apart | Mate apart |
|---|---|---|---|
| Frank Nazar | 40.9% | 41.5% | 43.9% |
| Connor Bedard | 41.7% | 40.9% | 41.1% |
| Alex Vlasic | 44.7% | 39.3% | 41.7% |
40.9% together, 41.5% for him apart and 43.9% for Nazar apart. Nazar 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
