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
2 goals and 4 assists in 33 games for 6 points, minus-7, on 12:18 a night.
39.5 per cent at five-on-five, the 2nd percentile, over 340 minutes. 62 per cent of his shots came from inside 20 feet at a median of 16, and 34 attempts produced 2 goals.
The Finesse Game
Limited. 34 shots in 33 games is very low volume and the hands are ordinary at this level.
The locations say he is doing the right thing and the finishing says he is not good enough at it yet. 6 points in 33 games is a fourth-liner’s rate.
The Physical Game
6 feet and 180, and willing without being heavy. He forechecks honestly and goes to the net, and he loses more battles than he wins against NHL defencemen.
23 penalty minutes in 33 games is a high rate for a bottom-six forward.
The Intangibles
A third-round pick out of Notre Dame, where he was captain, and a first NHL stretch at 22.
The realistic projection is a fourth-line winger who kills penalties. On this roster the opportunity exists; nothing yet says he will take it.
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.

- ordinaryraised, and called ordinary
- he lacks itraised, and he does not have it
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 eye and the numbers
HindsightThe report ranks him 34 points above where the numbers do. 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 — 70 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.

one shot; the league's average best is 83.9
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 · 340 minutes at five-on-five
- Nick Foligno33%
- Ryan Donato23%
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
- CHI took 43.2% of the expected goals as a club. His own share is 39.5% — 3.7 below the club he did it on.
- The role
- 340 minutes at five-on-five — 8th percentile in ice time.
With and without
| Teammate | Together | Him apart | Mate apart |
|---|---|---|---|
| Connor Murphy | 42.8% | 37.6% | 46.5% |
| Alex Vlasic | 37.3% | 40.8% | 43.2% |
| Nick Foligno | 37.5% | 40.4% | 45.9% |
42.8% together, 37.6% for him apart and 46.5% for Murphy apart. He was the one being carried: the share went with Murphy and did not follow 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
47 unblocked shots in 2024-25, 2 of them goals. His median goal came from 46 feet. 62% of his shots came from inside twenty feet, 15% from beyond forty.
