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
3 goals and 5 points in 21 games, on 8 and a half minutes a night — the smallest role of his career.
The Physical Game
The reason he is on a roster. 6-3 and 216, and he plays a heavy, aggressive forechecking game: he takes the body on every retrieval, he is hard to handle below the goal line, and he is willing to drop the gloves. 238 penalty minutes over 305 games is about right for the type.
The Finesse Game
Thin. The hands are functional around the net and not much use anywhere else, the shot is ordinary, and he does not make plays for linemates. 35 goals in 305 games tells the story accurately.
The skating is better than you would guess for the size — he gets in on the forecheck quickly, which is the one place his speed matters.
The Intangibles
Injuries have taken large pieces out of what was once a more promising career; he was a first-round pick and has never had the offensive season that pedigree suggested. What he is now is a thirteenth forward who changes the temperature of a game when the coach wants it changed.
That job is real, it is worth a roster spot on a contending team, and it is one bad month from being given to somebody else.

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.
