Makar scored 18 regular season goals on 318 unblocked attempts from the offensive zone, 2025-26. His densest patch is right circle, 35 ft out: 4/18 · 22% of his goals came from inside nine feet of that point, against 6% of the league’s goals from the same patch.

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 — 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.

Under 150 located attempts, so the counts are raw. A share of 135 shots moves by more than a point on one bounce, and printing it would give the sample an authority it has not earned.

8 of his 20 goals came in the 2nd period, on 74 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.
