Last Season
Fourteen goals and 21 assists in all 82 games — 35 points, minus-eight, at 23:44 a night with 1,619 five-on-five minutes, the most on the club and among the most in the league.
The Finesse Game
Fourteen goals from a defenceman is a surprising number and the shot chart says treat it carefully: 191 unblocked attempts from a median of 49 feet with 70 per cent from beyond forty.
Fourteen goals from that distance is a rate no defenceman sustains. Twenty-one assists is the more honest measure of what he does with the puck.
The Physical Game
Six foot three, 210, and genuinely hard to play against. Fifty penalty minutes across 82 games of the hardest minutes on the club, which is disciplined for the workload.
He clears his crease, blocks shots, and closes gaps without lunging.
The Intangibles
Forty-nine point nine per cent of the expected goals, 52nd percentile, with the chances dead level at 60.3 and 60.5 across sixteen hundred minutes.
Dead average in the most minutes on a club that finished eleventh in even-strength expected goals against is a good season, and the minus-eight is the penalty kill rather than him.
He is 30, a hundred and fifty-ninth overall pick, and the defenceman this club leans on when Fox is hurt — which last season was twenty-seven games.
