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.
Last Season
12 goals and 24 assists in 80 games — 36 points, minus-29, at 14:53 a night with 95 penalty minutes.
His 815th career game and his 486th point. 336 career assists.
The Finesse Game
A playmaker by trade and always has been — 336 assists against 150 goals in 815 games says which half of the game he is.
165 unblocked attempts, 12 goals, median 33 feet with only 22 per cent from inside 20 and 31 per cent from beyond 40. That is a perimeter shot chart and 12 goals is what it returns.
24 assists in 15 minutes a night is a fair rate.
The Physical Game
5-10 and 208 pounds, and he plays angry — 95 penalty minutes is one of the higher totals on the club and it is not all useful.
He is thick and difficult to move for the height, and he takes as many bad penalties as good hits.
The Intangibles
44.7 per cent of the expected goals, 13th percentile, and 44.8 per cent of the shot attempts, 11th, across 1,040 minutes, with the goals 35-64 against.
The minus-29 is the second-worst figure on a club whose goaltending finished 21 goals worse than the chances it faced, the third-worst in the league. A great deal of that number is not his.
The chance share, at 14 minutes a night in a sheltered role, is his.
4 points in his last 10, 2 of them goals. He is 31, a 12th overall pick, and on his sixth organisation.
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.
- measuredcomputed here from the season's own data
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.
- perimeter· shoots from the outside, by choice or because he cannot get in

The eye and the numbers
SightedThe report ranks him 48 points above where the numbers do. It was written with these numbers on screen and departs from them anyway, which makes the gap a judgment rather than an oversight. 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 656 skaters in this edition with a report and enough ice time. The report bar ranks the mean of the grades above — 74 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 83.6
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.

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, 2025-26
- The club
- TOR took 46.3% of the expected goals as a club. His own share is 44.7% — 1.6 below the club he did it on.
- The role
- First line, 1,040 minutes at five-on-five — 65th percentile in ice time.
With and without
| Teammate | Together | Him apart | Mate apart |
|---|---|---|---|
| Auston Matthews | 47.9% | 42.1% | 48.0% |
| Jake McCabe | 49.0% | 41.8% | 45.6% |
| Matthew Knies | 39.5% | 48.0% | 47.4% |
47.9% together, 42.1% for him apart and 48.0% for Matthews apart. He was worse away from Matthews, who was no better away from him — he needed that pairing more than Matthews did.
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
165 unblocked shots in 2025-26, 12 of them goals. His median goal came from 23 feet. 22% of his shots came from inside twenty feet, 30% from beyond forty.
