This Season So Far
The 2024-25 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
82 games, 6 goals and 27 assists for 33 points, 1 on the power play, 21 penalty minutes, 19:06 a night and minus-3, with 2 game-winners. He took 52.4 per cent of the expected goals at five-on-five over 1,416 minutes, the 72nd percentile, and his ice went 63-71 against an expectation of 60.29-54.73.
Three goals of finishing above what the chances were worth and sixteen more conceded than they called for. He took the joint-best chance share of any defenceman on the club and finished minus-3, which is a crease problem rather than a defending one.
The Finesse Game
155 attempts at a median of 52 feet with 77 per cent of them from beyond forty and 9 per cent from inside twenty, 98 of those on goal, converted at 5.9 per cent against a career 5.47 across 128 shots.
Twenty-nine career assists in 103 games. He walks the line and finds the seam to the far side rather than firing everything into shin pads, and 27 assists from an undrafted defenceman in a first full season is a genuine surprise.
The Physical Game
He is 6-1 and 202 and took 21 penalty minutes.
Twenty-five career penalty minutes in 103 games. He is an ordinary-sized defenceman without much physical presence; the gap is closed with feet and the stick does the rest, and there is no net-front game here at all.
The Intangibles
Undrafted, three seasons, one organisation, and 36 points in 103 games.
He was not drafted and did not play a full NHL season until he was 27, and then he played all 82 at nineteen minutes a night and scored 33 points.

Goals while he was on the ice: 63 for, 71 against. Expected: 60.3 and 54.7.
The eye and the numbers
HindsightThe two rank him within 4 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 652 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.
Usual linemates
2023-24 · 1416 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, 2023-24
- The club
- TBL took 50.5% of the expected goals as a club. His own share is 52.4% — 1.9 above the club he did it on.
- The role
- First pair, 1,416 minutes at five-on-five — 95th percentile in ice time.
With and without
| Teammate | Together | Him apart | Mate apart |
|---|---|---|---|
| Victor Hedman | 53.1% | 51.9% | 51.9% |
| Nikita Kucherov | 54.0% | 51.1% | 54.8% |
| Brayden Point | 52.2% | 52.6% | 53.1% |
53.1% together, 51.9% for him apart and 51.9% for Hedman apart. Splitting them up moved neither man. Whatever is driving the share, it is not this pairing.
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
155 unblocked shots in 2023-24, 6 of them goals. His median goal came from 41 feet. 9% of his shots came from inside twenty feet, 77% from beyond forty.
