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

9 goals and 17 assists in 42 games — 26 points at 16:16 a night, even on the year, on 66 shots. He missed half the season to a pelvic injury that required surgery.

49.5 per cent of the expected goals at five-on-five, the 46th percentile, across 511 minutes. His ice went 22-23 against an expectation of 21.48-21.88, which is a line that got what it deserved.

The Finesse Game

66 attempts at a median of 20 feet with 51 per cent from inside 20 and 8 per cent from beyond 40 — the least perimeter profile of any forward here. At 35 he is still shooting from the paint.

The hands and the timing are why he has lasted. 17 assists in 42 games is a point-per-two-games rate from a man who is no longer quick, and it comes entirely from knowing where the play is going.

The Physical Game

5-11 and 180 and among the lightest forwards on the roster. He does not forecheck with force, he does not win a battle on the wall, and he never has.

14 penalty minutes in 42 games. He takes what comes with playing in the slot at that weight and he answers none of it.

The Intangibles

Twenty-second overall in 2008 and 1,060 games and 728 points across three organisations, including the captaincy of this one.

He is 35 and coming off surgery. On a roster whose best years belong to men over 30, he is the oldest and the most decorated of them.

The eye and the numbers

Hindsight
Report
55th
Numbers
46th

The two rank him within 9 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 637 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.

Usual linemates

2024-25 · 511 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
SEA took 47.2% of the expected goals as a club. His own share is 49.5% — 2.3 above the club he did it on.
The role
511 minutes at five-on-five — 18th percentile in ice time.

With and without

Brandon Montour52.8%47.6%47.6%
Adam Larsson42.6%53.9%46.5%
Jared McCann50.4%49.1%46.5%

52.8% together, 47.6% for him apart and 47.6% for Montour 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

102 unblocked shots in 2024-25, 10 of them goals. His median goal came from 16 feet. 51% of his shots came from inside twenty feet.
