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

33-19-2 in 54 games, .9056 with a 2.44 average and 5 shutouts on 1,377 shots.

Florida’s goaltending came in 3.7 goals better than the chances faced, 14th in the league — a modest figure, in front of a defence that was 2nd in the league at suppressing chances. The regular season is not where he earns it; two consecutive June runs are.

The Physical Game

6-2 and 180, and light, and the game is precise rather than large. He is square, he tracks through traffic as well as any goaltender in the league, and he does not travel further than the puck requires.

The rebound control is genuinely good and it matters behind a club that concedes few chances but concedes them from close range. At 36 the recovery on a second play has thinned slightly; there is no other visible decline.

The Mental Game

Two Vezinas, a decade of playoff failures, a contract that was called the worst in the league for three years, and then two Cups.

What separates him now is that he does not appear to carry a bad goal into anything. That was the exact criticism for a decade and it is no longer available.

The Intangibles

Fifteen seasons, 400 wins, and a late career that has rewritten the whole of the earlier one.

At 36, with the club’s captain out for the season, the margin for error shrinks. This roster has been built to concede almost nothing and to let him handle what arrives, and it will be asked to do it without its best defensive forward.

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.

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.
