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
20 goals and 18 assists in all 82 games — 38 points, minus-12, at 16:51 a night with 65 penalty minutes.
The Finesse Game
The shot location is the reason the goals arrived: 244 unblocked attempts with 47 per cent from inside 20 feet, median 23, and 19 goals.
He is a big winger who goes to the net rather than a skilled one who settles for the outside, and at 24 that habit is worth more than a better set of hands would be.
18 assists is the ceiling on the playmaking.
The Physical Game
6-3, 212, and one of the genuinely heavy forwards in the league. 65 penalty minutes, a willingness to fight, and a forecheck that arrives on time and hard.
He is fast for the size, which is the difference between a fourth-liner and a top-9 winger.
The Intangibles
47.9 per cent of the expected goals, 35th percentile, with the goals 38-38 in his favour across 1,099 minutes — one of the few Rangers whose actual results beat the chances.
6 points in his last 10, 4 of them goals. He is 24, a second-round pick, and 104 points into 249 games.
On a club that finished 29th in generating offence and needs somebody to make room, he is the most useful young forward here.
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 report ranks him 31 points above where the numbers do. 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 — 75 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.

With and without
| Teammate | Together | Him apart | Mate apart |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vladislav Gavrikov | 49.8% | 46.6% | 49.4% |
| Vincent Trocheck | 46.8% | 48.5% | 44.3% |
| Braden Schneider | 42.3% | 50.9% | 44.6% |
49.8% together, 46.6% for him apart and 49.4% for Gavrikov apart. He was worse away from Gavrikov, who was no better away from him — he needed that pairing more than Gavrikov did.
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
244 unblocked shots in 2025-26, 19 of them goals. His median goal came from 15 feet. 47% of his shots came from inside twenty feet, 21% from beyond forty.
