MacKenzie Weegar

Last Season

Four goals and 24 assists in 79 games — 28 points, minus-33, at 22:28 a night with 88 penalty minutes.

His 629th career game.

The Finesse Game

Two hundred and twenty-six unblocked attempts from a median of 53 feet, 84 per cent of them from beyond forty and three per cent from inside twenty, and four goals.

Twenty-four assists in 79 games is a fair rate. Sixty-three goals in 629 career games.

The Physical Game

Six foot even, 206, and he plays a genuinely hard game — he finishes checks, defends his crease, and takes the other team’s best line. Eighty-eight penalty minutes.

The skating is good enough and the physical commitment is the reason a two hundred and sixth overall pick has played six hundred games.

The Intangibles

This is one of the strangest pages in the edition. Fifty point one per cent of the expected goals, 54th percentile, and 52.5 per cent of the shot attempts, 78th, across 1,432 minutes — with the chances essentially level at 59.0 and 58.6, and the goals 69 for and 64 against, in his favour.

And a minus-33, the joint third-worst figure in this book.

Every five-on-five number here is above water. The minus comes from short-handed ice and empty nets, and it is the single most misleading plus-minus in this book.

Six points in his last ten. He is 32, and this page exists to say that the number on his hockey card is wrong.
