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
No goals and 7 assists in 39 games — 7 points at 15:56 a night, minus-12, with 6 penalty minutes on 38 shots.
45.8 per cent of the expected goals at five-on-five, the 18th percentile — the worst mark on the roster by a distance. His ice went 19-15 against an expectation of 18.15-21.48, which is six fewer goals conceded than the chances predicted, and the chances were bad.
The Finesse Game
38 attempts in 39 games and no goals. 10 goals and 44 points in 307 career games across eight seasons.
7 assists. The first pass is the safe one and under a forecheck the exits stop, which is most of why the chance share looks the way it does.
The Physical Game
6-4 and 207 and he defends the rush with reach rather than with force. He clears his crease adequately and he does not hurt anybody.
6 penalty minutes in 39 games is a very low rate. He does not foul and he does not retaliate, and 85 penalty minutes in 307 career games says that has always been true.
The Intangibles
Seventh overall in 2014 and 307 games and 44 points across five organisations in eight seasons.
He is 29. A top-ten pick who is a seventh defenceman at 29 is a common enough story and it is worth saying plainly: the skating was never quite enough and nothing else was ever going to cover it.

The eye and the numbers
HindsightThe two rank him within 13 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 — 61 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
2024-25 · 541 minutes at five-on-five
- Neal Pionk36%
- Colin Miller27%
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
- WPG took 51.8% of the expected goals as a club. His own share is 45.8% — 6.0 below the club he did it on.
- The role
- 541 minutes at five-on-five — 19th percentile in ice time.
With and without
| Teammate | Together | Him apart | Mate apart |
|---|---|---|---|
| Neal Pionk | 36.7% | 50.9% | 53.3% |
| Mason Appleton | 44.7% | 46.3% | 50.6% |
| Nino Niederreiter | 45.3% | 46.0% | 50.4% |
36.7% together, 50.9% for him apart and 53.3% for Pionk 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
58 unblocked shots in 2024-25, 0 of them goals. 3% of his shots came from inside twenty feet, 74% from beyond forty.
