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
5 goals and 7 assists in 72 games — 12 points, plus-10, at 12:22 a night with 10 penalty minutes.
The Finesse Game
Thin in volume and remarkable in location. 61 unblocked attempts, of which 67 per cent came from inside 20 feet, median 15 — the second-shortest average distance of any forward in this edition after Voronkov.
5 goals out of it, which is a poor conversion from excellent ice and says the hands are the limit rather than the positioning.
7 assists in 72 games is the whole of the playmaking.
The Physical Game
6-4, 207, and he uses it in front of the net and on the forecheck. 10 penalty minutes in 72 games is unusually clean for a player in this role.
He wins defensive-zone faceoffs, which is most of why he dresses.
The Intangibles
50.9 per cent of the expected goals, 62nd percentile, with the goals 26-18 in his favour across 735 minutes, which is a fourth-line record most third lines would take.
That is a fourth line doing its job on a club that finished 7th in expected goals against, and it is worth more than the 12 points suggest.
He is 26, a third-round pick, and 145 games in. No points in his last 10. If the finishing ever arrives he is a third-line centre; if it does not, he is exactly what he is now, and that has value on a team that expects to play in May.
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 numbers rank him 44 points above where the report does. 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 — 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
- DAL took 50.5% of the expected goals as a club. His own share is 50.9% — 0.4 above the club he did it on.

With and without
| Teammate | Together | Him apart | Mate apart |
|---|---|---|---|
| Justin Hryckowian | 50.5% | 51.1% | 49.9% |
| Mavrik Bourque | 52.6% | 49.8% | 54.7% |
| Thomas Harley | 52.3% | 50.2% | 47.6% |
50.5% together, 51.1% for him apart and 49.9% for Hryckowian apart. Splitting them up moved neither man. Whatever is driving the share, it is not this pairing.
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
61 unblocked shots in 2025-26, 5 of them goals. His median goal came from 11 feet. 67% of his shots came from inside twenty feet.
