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
1 goal and 6 assists in 59 games for 7 points, minus-16, on 17:04 a night with Ottawa.
72 shots and 1 goal. A third-pair role on a playoff club, and the rating is the least flattering line in it.
The Finesse Game
None remaining. 7 points in 59 games at 17 minutes a night is among the lowest returns in this edition, and the first pass has slowed to the point where a forecheck can be planned around it.
There is no offensive contribution and there has not been for six seasons.
The Physical Game
6-1 and 193, and the willingness has never gone. He blocks shots, finishes checks, and defends his net front, and he is one of the more respected veterans in the league for exactly that.
19 penalty minutes over 59 games is disciplined. The skating is the limitation and at 35 it is severe.
The Intangibles
Fifteen seasons, six organisations, and a reputation as a leader that every club he has joined has cited.
At 35 the projection is 50 games of third-pair hockey and a room presence. On a club that has missed nine straight playoffs, spending a roster spot on that is a choice worth interrogating.
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.

- a strengthread out of the prose, and claimed
- he lacks itraised, and he does not have it
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
HindsightThe two rank him within 15 points of one another. It was written for a back edition, with the seasons that followed already known. Neither the agreement nor the gap says anything about the eye, and this report is excluded from the club-level comparison for the same reason.
Both bars are percentiles among the 637 skaters in this edition with a report and enough ice time. The report bar ranks the mean of the grades above — 62 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.

Share of his five-on-five ice time spent alongside each player, measured from shift charts. Special teams are excluded: a power-play unit is not a line.
Why the numbers land there
Five-on-five, 2024-25
- The club
- OTT took 50.2% of the expected goals as a club. His own share is 46.3% — 3.9 below the club he did it on.
- The role
- 888 minutes at five-on-five — 44th percentile in ice time.
With and without
| Teammate | Together | Him apart | Mate apart |
|---|---|---|---|
| Jake Sanderson | 45.7% | 46.8% | 54.7% |
| Drake Batherson | 46.8% | 46.1% | 50.3% |
| Tim Stützle | 47.9% | 45.4% | 55.9% |
45.7% together, 46.8% for him apart and 54.7% for Sanderson apart. Sanderson was better away from him while his own share held, which is a mark against him more than for him.
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
112 unblocked shots in 2024-25, 1 of them goals. His median goal came from 51 feet. 3% of his shots came from inside twenty feet, 89% from beyond forty.
