Doorstep. 0/11 · 0% of his goals came from here, on 9/188 · 5% of his attempts — 0/9 · 0% of what he sent from there went in.
Slot. 4/11 · 36% of his goals came from here, on 23/188 · 12% of his attempts — 4/23 · 17% of what he sent from there went in.
Perimeter. 4/11 · 36% of his goals came from here, on 71/188 · 38% of his attempts — 4/71 · 6% of what he sent from there went in.
Point. 3/11 · 27% of his goals came from here, on 85/188 · 45% of his attempts — 3/85 · 4% 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.

02/When his goals came
6 of his 11 goals came in the 3rd period, on 35 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.
