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

4 goals and 0 assists in 42 games for 4 points, minus-7, on 8:27 a night with 60 penalty minutes.

52.9 per cent at five-on-five, the 77th percentile, over 303 minutes. 0 assists in 42 games is a line that speaks for itself.

The Finesse Game

None. 43 shots and 4 goals and no assists at all, which is as close to a purely physical role as the modern league still carries.

41 per cent of his attempts came from inside 20 feet, so the 4 goals are genuine net-front goals rather than accidents.

The Physical Game

6-3 and 211, and this is the entire job. He hits, he fights, and he is on the roster to make the other club’s afternoon unpleasant.

60 penalty minutes in 42 games is a very high rate. He is one of two men on this roster over 60 in limited minutes, which is a deliberate construction rather than an accident.

The Intangibles

A second-round pick, three organisations, and a Cup from a role that most clubs have stopped carrying.

The projection is 40 games as the thirteenth forward. Florida has decided that having two of these players is worth what it costs, and has won two Cups making the argument.

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.

The numbers underneath

On the ice

Five-on-five, 2024-25 · 303 minutes

Expected goals: 52.9%; 77th pct
Shot attempts: 51.5%; 70th pct

Goals while he was on the ice: 7 for, 12 against. Expected: 12.0 and 10.7.

Numbers

77th

The numbers rank him 56 points above where the report does. 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 — 67 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.

Tracked

NHL Edge, 2024-25 · 42 games

Top speed: 21.9 mph; 36th pct
Bursts over 20 mph: 0.71 a game
Distance: 1.36 miles a game
Hardest shot: 86.1 mph; 52nd pct

A top speed is a season's best, and a man who takes more shifts gets more tries at one; the percentile is the feed's own, against every skater, and says less between a top-pair defenceman and a fourth-line wing than it does between two men in the same job. The counts are shown per game for the same reason.

Usual linemates

2024-25 · 303 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, 2024-25

The club: FLA took 54.0% of the expected goals as a club. His own share is 52.9% — 1.1 below the club he did it on.
The role: Fourth line, 303 minutes at five-on-five — 6th percentile in ice time.

With and without

Teammate	Together	Him apart	Mate apart
Tomas Nosek	60.2%	43.5%	55.1%
Niko Mikkola	53.7%	52.3%	53.3%
Uvis Balinskis	53.5%	52.5%	54.7%

60.2% together, 43.5% for him apart and 55.1% for Nosek apart. Both were worse apart, so whatever the two of them had together was doing real work.

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

68 unblocked shots in 2024-25, 4 of them goals. His median goal came from 6 feet. 41% of his shots came from inside twenty feet, 29% from beyond forty.
