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
No goals and no assists in 25 games for Montreal — 24 penalty minutes at 5:56 a night, which is among the least ice time of anybody in this edition.
There is no five-on-five sample worth reporting. He was a healthy scratch for most of the season on a club that made the playoffs.
The Finesse Game
14 shot attempts in 25 games and no goals. 38 points in 200 career NHL games is the whole offensive record.
The puck skills are below NHL standard and the deployment says so. He is not on the ice in any situation where the puck is expected to reach him.
The Physical Game
6-1 and 222 and this is the entire player. He hits extremely hard, he fights, and he is not moved from in front of a net.
241 penalty minutes in 200 career games. He crosses the line deliberately and the reason a club dresses him is that everybody on the other bench knows he will.
The Intangibles
A sixth-round pick of Montreal in 2016, and four NHL seasons on from that, most of it in a role that is disappearing from the league.
He is 27 and Toronto signed him in the summer. On a roster that lost Ryan Reaves in the same off-season, he is the replacement for a job the club evidently still believes in.
