Alex Tuch
01/Where he scores from
Tuch scored 33 regular season goals on 312 unblocked attempts from the offensive zone, 2025-26. His densest patch is the doorstep, 11 ft out: 13/33 · 39% of his goals came from inside nine feet of that point, against 28% of the league’s goals from the same patch.
Doorstep. 17/33 · 52% of his goals came from here, on 91/312 · 29% of his attempts — 17/91 · 19% of what he sent from there went in.
Slot. 10/33 · 30% of his goals came from here, on 94/312 · 30% of his attempts — 10/94 · 11% of what he sent from there went in.
Perimeter. 4/33 · 12% of his goals came from here, on 106/312 · 34% of his attempts — 4/106 · 4% of what he sent from there went in.
Point. 2/33 · 6% of his goals came from here, on 21/312 · 7% of his attempts — 2/21 · 10% of what he sent from there went in.
Tuch scored 4 playoff goals on 68 unblocked attempts from the offensive zone, 2025-26. No single patch of ice holds an unusual share of them.
Doorstep. 2 of his 4 goals came from here, on 18 of his 68 attempts.
Slot. 2 of his 4 goals came from here, on 23 of his 68 attempts.
Perimeter. 0 of his 4 goals came from here, on 21 of his 68 attempts.
Point. 0 of his 4 goals came from here, on 6 of his 68 attempts.
Under 150 located attempts, so the counts are raw. A share of 68 shots moves by more than a point on one bounce, and printing it would give the sample an authority it has not earned.
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.
Tuch scored 90 regular season goals on 889 unblocked attempts from the offensive zone, 2023-24 to 2025-26. His densest patch is the slot, 15 ft out: 28/90 · 31% of his goals came from inside nine feet of that point, against 19% of the league’s goals from the same patch.

02/When his goals came
12 of his 33 goals came in the 2nd period, on 78 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.
