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
13 goals and 4 assists in 29 games — 17 points, plus-8, at 17:18 a night with 3 power-play goals. 53 games missed.
The Finesse Game
The shot is the case for him and it is a genuinely heavy one. 82 unblocked attempts produced 14 goals — a conversion rate nobody sustains, from a median of 29 feet with only 32 per cent inside 20.
61 goals in 195 career games is a real scoring rate. 4 assists in 29 games is the flat truth about everything else.
The Physical Game
6-2, 215, and he plays a heavy game on the wall and in front of the net. 22 penalty minutes in 29 games.
The skating is the limitation and always has been — he is slow, and it caps how much ice he can be given.
The Intangibles
54.8 per cent of the expected goals, 86th percentile, against only 45.4 per cent of the shot attempts, 14th — the widest split on the club, which is saying something here.
53 games missed is the story of the season. 6 points in his last 10, 5 of them goals.
He is 24, a 23rd overall pick, and on a roster that finished 26th at generating offence he may be the best pure finisher. The question is entirely whether he plays.

The eye and the numbers
SightedThe numbers rank him 26 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 — 74 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.

one shot; the league's average best is 83.6
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, 2025-26
- The club
- PHI took 50.5% of the expected goals as a club. His own share is 54.8% — 4.3 above the club he did it on.
- The role
- 389 minutes at five-on-five — 11th percentile in ice time.
With and without
| Teammate | Together | Him apart | Mate apart |
|---|---|---|---|
| Noah Cates | 52.9% | 58.4% | 50.7% |
| Travis Sanheim | 56.7% | 53.1% | 50.5% |
| Bobby Brink | 53.2% | 55.9% | 50.9% |
52.9% together, 58.4% for him apart and 50.7% for Cates apart. He was better away from Cates, who was no worse away from him — the pairing cost him more than it cost Cates.
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
82 unblocked shots in 2025-26, 14 of them goals. His median goal came from 32 feet. 32% of his shots came from inside twenty feet, 16% from beyond forty.
