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

78 games, 17 goals and 27 assists for 44 points, 6 on the power play, 17 penalty minutes, 17:27 a night and plus-1, with 3 game-winners. He took 55.1 per cent of the expected goals at five-on-five over 1,098 minutes — the 88th percentile and the best chance share of anybody on the club — and his ice went 49-36 against an expectation of 49.46-40.34.

Level with the chances at the offensive end and four goals of goaltending above them at the other. Seventeen goals is his lowest total in a season of seventy games or more.

The Finesse Game

244 attempts at a median of 18 feet with 54 per cent of them from inside twenty, 169 of those on goal, converted at 10.1 per cent against a career 12.72 across 2,351 shots.

299 career goals in 1,018 games, one short of three hundred. He gets to the inside as reliably at 34 as he did at 21 — better than half his attempts came from within twenty feet, one of only two such charts on the club — and 69 career power-play goals is the most of anybody here by nineteen.

The Physical Game

He is 5-11 and 180 and took 17 penalty minutes.

251 career penalty minutes in 1,018 games. He is a small winger who works in the paint without ever fighting for it; he finds the seam behind a defenceman rather than going through one, and fourteen seasons of that have cost him very little.

The Intangibles

Twenty-second overall in 2008 by Edmonton, fourteen seasons, three organisations, and 702 points in 1,018 games.

A career minus-60 across fourteen seasons on clubs that mostly missed. He is one goal from three hundred and still took the best chance share on his club at 34, which is the argument for a fifteenth season.

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.

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, 2023-24 · 1,098 minutes

Expected goals: 55.1%; 88th pct
Shot attempts: 54.1%; 86th pct

Goals while he was on the ice: 49 for, 36 against. Expected: 49.5 and 40.3.

The eye and the numbers

Hindsight

Report

67th

Numbers

88th

The numbers rank him 21 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 652 skaters in this edition with a report and enough ice time. The report bar ranks the mean of the grades above — 73 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, 2023-24 · 78 games

Top speed: 22.4 mph; 61st pct
Bursts over 20 mph: 1.00 a game
Distance: 2.80 miles a game
Hardest shot: 87.0 mph; 51st 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

2023-24 · 1098 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, 2023-24

The club: SEA took 50.8% of the expected goals as a club. His own share is 55.1% — 4.3 above the club he did it on.
The role: Second line, 1,098 minutes at five-on-five — 72nd percentile in ice time.

With and without

Teammate	Together	Him apart	Mate apart
Matty Beniers	55.1%	55.0%	42.5%
Jared McCann	55.5%	54.8%	47.2%
Adam Larsson	51.3%	57.5%	47.2%

55.1% together, 55.0% for him apart and 42.5% for Beniers apart. Beniers was worse away from him while his own share held — the pairing was doing more for Beniers than for him.

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

244 unblocked shots in 2023-24, 18 of them goals. His median goal came from 13 feet. 54% of his shots came from inside twenty feet, 15% from beyond forty.
