Ask the book

2026-27 edition Ask a direct question about this edition of the book — who, how many, how common, which group more — and it is answered with a table computed on this page from the edition’s index: the season line, height and age, the on-ice percentiles, the grades and the traits read out of every report. Ask for a view on named players — what a comparison comes down to, what makes a man — and you get the book’s reading of their own pages, and only those. The model turns your question into a query and phrases the result, or reads the pages it is handed; it never originates a figure, and an answer carrying a figure that is on neither the table nor the pages is withheld. It does not forecast, and it says so when a question is outside what the book holds.

Tables are computed on this page from the 2026-27 edition’s index; readings rest on the players’ own pages; the model never counts. Twenty questions an hour.

Florida Panthers Right Wing #44

Minus 29 in 67 games, and no 5-on-5 record to explain it with.

No games in 2025-26. The season above is the last one he played, and everything on this page should be read with that gap in it.

This Season So Far

The 2026-27 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.

2023-24

5 goals and 6 assists in 67 games — 11 points, minus-29, at 11:23 a night with 47 penalty minutes. He has not played an NHL game in the 2 seasons since.

The Finesse Game

Thin. 66 shots on goal produced 5 goals. 35 points in 193 career games across 4 seasons.

He is a fourth-line winger whose case has always been the skating and the forecheck rather than anything with the puck.

The Physical Game

6-3, 203, and he plays fast and straight. 47 penalty minutes in 67 games.

The size and speed together are the reason clubs keep signing him. The hands have never arrived.

The Intangibles

The minus-29 is one of the worst figures in this book and it comes with no on-ice record attached, because the season it belongs to is 3 years old and outside what this edition tracks.

That is the honest position: a bad plus-minus from a bad Chicago team, 2 seasons in the American League since, and nothing measured in between.

He is 27 and signed to a Florida roster that is 4 deep at every forward position. This is organisational depth, and the page exists because he is on the list rather than because there is a case to make.
