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
6 goals and 8 assists in 64 games — 14 points, minus-10, at 12:39 a night with 8 penalty minutes.
The Finesse Game
The shot chart is respectable — 53 per cent of his unblocked attempts from inside 20 feet, median 18 — and 6 goals came out of 101 tries.
He is where he should be and nothing happens when he gets there. 66 goals in 454 career games from a 9th overall pick is the plain summary.
8 assists in 64 games.
The Physical Game
6-6, 222, and this is what has kept him employed for 7 seasons. He wins net-front position, screens, and takes defensive-zone faceoffs.
8 penalty minutes in 64 games is a strikingly low number for a man this size, and it is the criticism: he occupies space rather than imposing on it.
The Intangibles
45.0 per cent of the expected goals, 14th percentile, and 45.0 per cent of the shot attempts, 11th, across 688 minutes.
No points at all in his last 10 games.
He is 27, the ninth pick in 2017, and this is now the shape of the career. A 6-6 centre who goes to the net is a useful thing to have on a fourth line; it is not what the ninth pick was for, and the club has waited 7 years to stop hoping.
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.

The eye and the numbers
SightedThe two rank him within 4 points of one another. It was written with these numbers on screen, so the agreement is not corroboration — the arithmetic is on both sides of it.
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 — 66 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.

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.

- The club
- DET took 48.2% of the expected goals as a club. His own share is 45.0% — 3.2 below the club he did it on.

With and without
| Teammate | Together | Him apart | Mate apart |
|---|---|---|---|
| James van Riemsdyk | 53.4% | 39.2% | 43.0% |
| Ben Chiarot | 35.9% | 51.1% | 44.6% |
| Mason Appleton | 39.1% | 48.6% | 43.0% |
53.4% together, 39.2% for him apart and 43.0% for van Riemsdyk apart. Both were worse apart, so whatever the two of them had together was doing real work.
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
101 unblocked shots in 2025-26, 6 of them goals. His median goal came from 30 feet. 53% of his shots came from inside twenty feet, 14% from beyond forty.
