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
All 82 games, 30 goals and 24 assists for 54 points, 10 on the power play, 8 game-winners, 26 penalty minutes, 17:13 a night and minus-16. He took 51.0 per cent of the expected goals at five-on-five over 1,091 minutes, the 61st percentile, and his ice went 46-47 against an expectation of 49.79-47.76.
Four goals of scoring that did not arrive and one fewer conceded than the chances called for. The minus-16 is the worst on the club and the chance share underneath it was above even, which is a gap that is mostly noise.
The Finesse Game
312 attempts at a median of 20 feet with half of them from inside twenty, 218 on goal, converted at 13.8 per cent against a career 12.42.
233 career assists in 818 games. Eight game-winners in a season on a club that won thirty-nine games is a striking share. The shot is a one-timer from the right circle and 76 career power-play goals is what it has produced.
The Physical Game
He is 6-0 and 192 and finishes his checks without hunting them.
415 career penalty minutes in 818 games is a moderate rate. He forechecks hard, gets to the net, and does not win many walls against bigger men.
The Intangibles
Twenty-sixth overall in 2009 out of Smithtown, New York, fourteen seasons across three organisations, and 479 points in 818 games.
He is 33 and scored thirty. On a club with four forwards who score and nine who do not, a thirty-goal right winger at 33 is not a problem the Islanders should be trying to solve.

Goals while he was on the ice: 46 for, 47 against. Expected: 49.8 and 47.8.
The eye and the numbers
HindsightThe two rank him within 15 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 415 skaters in this edition with a report and enough ice time. The report bar ranks the mean of the grades above — 71 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
2023-24 · 1091 minutes at five-on-five
- Brock Nelson78%
- Anders Lee13%
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
- NYI took 49.1% of the expected goals as a club. His own share is 51.0% — 1.9 above the club he did it on.
- The role
- Second line, 1,091 minutes at five-on-five — 71st percentile in ice time.
With and without
| Teammate | Together | Him apart | Mate apart |
|---|---|---|---|
| Brock Nelson | 50.3% | 54.0% | 46.6% |
| Pierre Engvall | 52.7% | 48.9% | 54.0% |
| Noah Dobson | 55.9% | 48.0% | 47.1% |
50.3% together, 54.0% for him apart and 46.6% for Nelson apart. He was carrying it: the share stayed with him and left Nelson behind.
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
312 unblocked shots in 2023-24, 30 of them goals. His median goal came from 10 feet. 50% of his shots came from inside twenty feet, 12% from beyond forty.
