Last Season
Two goals and five assists in 59 games — seven points, minus-six, at 10:31 a night with 40 penalty minutes.
The Finesse Game
Thin. Seventy-seven unblocked attempts, two goals, median 23 feet with 47 per cent from inside twenty — good ice and no finish.
Twenty-seven points in 172 career games. There is no offensive case and the club is not making one.
The Physical Game
Six foot one, 190, and he plays a hard checking game. Forty penalty minutes in ten and a half minutes a night is a high rate and the clearest thing on the page.
He forechecks, he blocks shots, and he kills penalties on a unit that finished last in the league.
The Intangibles
Forty-nine point two per cent of the expected goals, 46th percentile, against 47.2 per cent of the shot attempts, 27th, across 610 minutes.
That is a fourth line holding its own on a club that could not, and it is better than several forwards ahead of him on this depth chart managed.
He is 27, undrafted, and the son of a former NHL player. Two points in his last ten. This is a thirteenth-forward job held by being useful, which is the only way anybody holds one.
