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
26 goals and 23 assists in 81 games — 49 points at 17:53 a night, with 6 power-play goals and 6 game-winning goals, on 194 shots.
47.6 per cent of the expected goals at five-on-five, the 28th percentile. His ice went 40-39 against an expectation of 42.36-46.60 — eight fewer goals conceded than the chances predicted, on a line that was being outshot.
The Finesse Game
194 attempts at a median of 21 feet with 46 per cent from inside 20, converting at 13.4 per cent. Twenty-six goals at 32 from a player who has never been fast is entirely a matter of where he shoots from.
23 assists. The passing is honest and the hockey sense is the thing that has lasted — he arrives in the slot without the puck and he is very hard to account for on a line that has a carrier.
The Physical Game
5-10 and 185 and he plays a heavy game for the size. He goes into the corners, he takes the punishment in front of the net that comes with a 21-foot median shot, and he forechecks first.
24 penalty minutes in 81 games. He is not an agitator and he does not retaliate; the physicality is entirely about winning the puck.
The Intangibles
Fourteenth overall in 2010 and 811 games and 527 points, most of it in St. Louis, where he won a Stanley Cup in 2019 and scored 12 goals in the playoffs that year.
He is 33 and was named captain of this club in 2024. On a roster whose oldest players are its most productive, he is the one who has done it in May.

The eye and the numbers
HindsightThe report ranks him 52 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 637 skaters in this edition with a report and enough ice time. The report bar ranks the mean of the grades above — 78 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
- SEA took 47.2% of the expected goals as a club. His own share is 47.6% — 0.4 above the club he did it on.
- The role
- First line, 1,139 minutes at five-on-five — 80th percentile in ice time.
With and without
| Teammate | Together | Him apart | Mate apart |
|---|---|---|---|
| Matty Beniers | 49.5% | 45.1% | 47.1% |
| Kaapo Kakko | 49.4% | 46.1% | 45.2% |
| Brandon Montour | 50.4% | 45.6% | 47.3% |
49.5% together, 45.1% for him apart and 47.1% for Beniers apart. He was worse away from Beniers, who was no better away from him — he needed that pairing more than Beniers did.
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
282 unblocked shots in 2024-25, 26 of them goals. His median goal came from 19 feet. 47% of his shots came from inside twenty feet, 20% from beyond forty.
