This Season So Far
The 2023-24 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
2-1-1 in 5 games, .9000, 3.14, no shutouts on 130 shots.
26 shots a night across five appearances. A hundred and thirty shots is a fortnight of a starter’s work and the number is here for completeness rather than for reading.
Four seasons, 19 games, a career .8836 on 524 shots.
The Finesse Game
6-2 and 201 pounds, and an athletic, slightly unstructured game that relies on getting to the puck rather than on being in front of it.
He plays aggressively, well out of his crease, and the trade is the ordinary one: the first shot is cut down and the second one is a scramble.
The puck-handling is genuinely good and is the part of the file a club notices first — he plays it to the wall and behind the net without hesitation.
The four NHL seasons read .8750 on 40 shots, .8972 on 214, .8500 on 140 and .9000 on 130. Five hundred and twenty-four shots across four seasons is not a record; it is four cups of coffee.
What can honestly be said is that he is twenty-seven, has never had a run of twenty consecutive games, and that everything in this file is still hypothesis.
The Intangibles
A hundred and ninety-ninth overall in 2015, the seventh round, and nineteen NHL games in four seasons across Ottawa and Seattle.
A seventh-round goaltender who has reached the NHL at all is already an outlier; almost none of them do.
He is twenty-seven, third on a depth chart behind a starter whose last two seasons have been poor. That is a better position than it looks: the number of starts available on this club is likely to be larger than the depth chart suggests, and it is the only way this file gets written properly.
What kind of player
The searchable half of the report. The first group is computed from the season's own data; the rest are read out of the prose above, and each one carries the sentence that produced it. A subject the report never raised is simply absent.
- a strengthread out of the prose, and claimed
Each computed tag also says how well its measure holds up from one season to the next, because a tag describes a season that has finished and a reader will assume it predicts the one coming. Some do and some do not, and the gap is wide: five-on-five workload repeats well, scoring late does not repeat at all.
“He plays aggressively, well out of his crease, and the trade is the ordinary one: the first shot is cut down and the second one is a scramble.”
