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

17 goals and 15 assists in 73 games for 32 points, minus-9, on 16:39 a night.

47.9 per cent at five-on-five, the 34th percentile. He scored 31 goals and 59 points the season before on almost identical shot volume; 13.3 per cent conversion last season against 18 per cent the year before is the entire difference.

The Finesse Game

A decent release and a straightforward game. 128 shots and 17 goals, with 28 per cent of the attempts inside 20 feet — the locations are middling and so is the rate.

15 assists is thin for a winger playing 16 minutes. He does not create for others and does not carry the puck into the zone; he arrives, and if the puck arrives with him he shoots.

The Physical Game

6-2 and 196, and he does not use it. He is honest on the forecheck without winning many pucks, and does not go to the net front.

8 penalty minutes over 73 games is remarkable, and on a winger of this size it reads as absence rather than discipline.

The Intangibles

A fifth-round pick, two organisations, and a 31-goal season sandwiched between two 30-point ones.

At 27 the honest reading is that the 31-goal season was the outlier and this is the player: a middle-six winger who scores 18 in a good year. The contract was signed on the other assumption.

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.

The numbers underneath

On the ice

Five-on-five, 2024-25 · 946 minutes

Expected goals: 47.9%; 34th pct
Shot attempts: 52.1%; 74th pct

Goals while he was on the ice: 24 for, 25 against. Expected: 32.1 and 35.0.

The eye and the numbers

Report

Numbers

34th

The 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 — 72 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.

Tracked

NHL Edge, 2024-25 · 73 games

Top speed: 22.0 mph; 37th pct
Bursts over 20 mph: 1.19 a game
Distance: 2.81 miles a game
Hardest shot: 93.0 mph; 91st pct

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.

Usual linemates

2024-25 · 946 minutes at five-on-five

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: CGY took 48.7% of the expected goals as a club. His own share is 47.9% — 0.8 below the club he did it on.
The role: Third line, 946 minutes at five-on-five — 52nd percentile in ice time.

With and without

Teammate	Together	Him apart	Mate apart
MacKenzie Weegar	49.9%	46.8%	51.3%
Rasmus Andersson	51.4%	46.2%	48.0%
Brayden Pachal	43.5%	49.9%	49.0%

49.9% together, 46.8% for him apart and 51.3% for Weegar apart. He was worse away from Weegar, who was no better away from him — he needed that pairing more than Weegar 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

202 unblocked shots in 2024-25, 17 of them goals. His median goal came from 18 feet. 29% of his shots came from inside twenty feet, 23% from beyond forty.
