Aaron Ekblad
01/Where he scores from
Ekblad scored 4 regular season goals on 151 unblocked attempts from the offensive zone, 2025-26. No single patch of ice holds an unusual share of them.
Doorstep. 0/4 · 0% of his goals came from here, on 8/151 · 5% of his attempts — 0/8 · 0% of what he sent from there went in.
Slot. 3/4 · 75% of his goals came from here, on 24/151 · 16% of his attempts — 3/24 · 13% of what he sent from there went in.
Perimeter. 1/4 · 25% of his goals came from here, on 46/151 · 30% of his attempts — 1/46 · 2% of what he sent from there went in.
Point. 0/4 · 0% of his goals came from here, on 73/151 · 48% of his attempts — 0/73 · 0% of what he sent from there went in.
Unblocked attempts — shots on goal, goals and misses — taken in the offensive zone, 2025-26. Clubs change ends each period, so every attempt is rotated into one zone; the shooter’s left is the left of the frame. Blocked attempts are not plotted, and neither is anything taken from the neutral or defensive zone. This is a record of what happened, not a forecast: nothing here is claimed to repeat.
Ekblad scored 11 regular season goals on 466 unblocked attempts from the offensive zone, 2023-24 to 2025-26. No single patch of ice holds an unusual share of them.

Perimeter. 4/11 · 36% of his goals came from here, on 133/466 · 29% of his attempts — 4/133 · 3% of what he sent from there went in.
Point. 3/11 · 27% of his goals came from here, on 253/466 · 54% of his attempts — 3/253 · 1% of what he sent from there went in.
Ekblad scored 4 playoff goals on 90 unblocked attempts from the offensive zone, 2023-24 to 2025-26. No single patch of ice holds an unusual share of them.

Perimeter. 1 of his 4 goals came from here, on 31 of his 90 attempts.
Point. 0 of his 4 goals came from here, on 41 of his 90 attempts.
Under 150 located attempts, so the counts are raw. A share of 90 shots moves by more than a point on one bounce, and printing it would give the sample an authority it has not earned.

Ekblad scored 120 regular season goals on 2,520 unblocked attempts from the offensive zone, 2014-15 to 2025-26. His densest patch is right point, 53 ft out: 10/120 · 8% of his goals came from inside nine feet of that point, against 1% of the league’s goals from the same patch.
Doorstep. 21/120 · 18% of his goals came from here, on 128/2,520 · 5% of his attempts — 21/128 · 16% of what he sent from there went in.

Unblocked attempts — shots on goal, goals and misses — taken in the offensive zone, 2014-15 to 2025-26. Clubs change ends each period, so every attempt is rotated into one zone; the shooter’s left is the left of the frame. Blocked attempts are not plotted, and neither is anything taken from the neutral or defensive zone — which is where 2 of his goals in this window came from, empty nets and long range. This is a record of what happened, not a forecast: nothing here is claimed to repeat.
02/When his goals came
2 of his 4 goals came in the 2nd period, on 34 shots. That is a record of last season, not a description of the player: which period a skater scores in does not carry from one year to the next.
