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

9 goals and 22 assists in 59 games for Columbus and the Rangers — 31 points at 15:33 a night, minus-10, with 1 shorthanded goal and 3 game-winners on 117 shots at 7.69 per cent, and 16 penalty minutes.

49.6 per cent of the expected goals at five-on-five over 793 minutes, the 50th percentile — the lowest of any forward on this roster who is not a fourth-liner. His ice went 25-40 against an expectation of 34.60-35.09 — ten goals of scoring missing and five conceded above expectation.

The Finesse Game

117 attempts at a median of 25 feet, with 34 per cent from inside 20 and 19 per cent from beyond 40, converting at 7.69 per cent against a career 11.66.

The skating is genuinely good and he carries the puck into the zone under control, which is what this club buys. 141 career assists against 80 goals in 445 games — he is a distributor and the finishing has never been reliable.

22 assists in 59 games is the best rate of his career.

The Physical Game

6-1 and 198. He does not forecheck with force, he does not win pucks on the wall, and he avoids contact rather than absorbing it.

16 penalty minutes in 59 games and 70 in 445 for his career is one of the lowest rates in this edition, and it is low because he is never in a battle.

The Intangibles

Twenty-fifth overall in 2015 by Winnipeg, and 445 games and 221 points at 27 across three clubs with a career minus-27.

He was signed here in the summer. A club that lost Teuvo Teravainen, Stefan Noesen and Jesper Fast in one off-season has replaced part of it with a first-round pick nobody has kept, and the system he is arriving into is the one thing most likely to make him look better than he has.

The eye and the numbers

Hindsight

50th

The 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 201 skaters in this edition with a report and enough ice time. The report bar ranks the mean of the grades above — 63 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.

NYR took 50.1% of the expected goals as a club. His own share is 49.6% — 0.5 below the club he did it on.

With and without

Boone Jenner48.4%50.7%48.2%
Johnny Gaudreau52.5%47.7%48.3%
Zach Werenski50.1%49.5%46.9%

48.4% together, 50.7% for him apart and 48.2% for Jenner 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

157 unblocked shots in 2023-24, 9 of them goals. His median goal came from 22 feet. 34% of his shots came from inside twenty feet, 19% from beyond forty.
