Colin Miller
01/Where he scores from
33 located attempts over 2025-26 — too few shots to map. The four counts are the whole of what this sample supports; a rink drawn from them would read as a pattern that is not there. A wider window may carry the graphic.
Miller scored 8 regular season goals on 232 unblocked attempts from the offensive zone, 2023-24 to 2025-26. No single patch of ice holds an unusual share of them.
Doorstep. 0/8 · 0% of his goals came from here, on 2/232 · 1% of his attempts — 0/2 · 0% of what he sent from there went in.
Slot. 2/8 · 25% of his goals came from here, on 16/232 · 7% of his attempts — 2/16 · 13% of what he sent from there went in.
Perimeter. 1/8 · 13% of his goals came from here, on 67/232 · 29% of his attempts — 1/67 · 1% of what he sent from there went in.
Point. 5/8 · 63% of his goals came from here, on 147/232 · 63% of his attempts — 5/147 · 3% of what he sent from there went in.
Unblocked attempts — shots on goal, goals and misses — taken in the offensive zone, 2023-24 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. This is a record of what happened, not a forecast: nothing here is claimed to repeat.
Miller scored 43 regular season goals on 1,328 unblocked attempts from the offensive zone, 2015-16 to 2025-26. His densest patch is the point, 50 ft out: 12/43 · 28% of his goals came from inside nine feet of that point, against 2% of the league’s goals from the same patch.
Doorstep. 1/43 · 2% of his goals came from here, on 17/1,328 · 1% of his attempts — 1/17 · 6% of what he sent from there went in.
Slot. 8/43 · 19% of his goals came from here, on 129/1,328 · 10% of his attempts — 8/129 · 6% of what he sent from there went in.
Perimeter. 9/43 · 21% of his goals came from here, on 369/1,328 · 28% of his attempts — 9/369 · 2% of what he sent from there went in.
Point. 25/43 · 58% of his goals came from here, on 813/1,328 · 61% of his attempts — 25/813 · 3% of what he sent from there went in.
Miller scored 4 playoff goals on 106 unblocked attempts from the offensive zone, 2015-16 to 2025-26. No single patch of ice holds an unusual share of them.
Doorstep. 0 of his 4 goals came from here, on 2 of his 106 attempts.
Slot. 2 of his 4 goals came from here, on 12 of his 106 attempts.
Perimeter. 2 of his 4 goals came from here, on 26 of his 106 attempts.
Point. 0 of his 4 goals came from here, on 66 of his 106 attempts.
Under 150 located attempts, so the counts are raw. A share of 106 shots moves by more than a point on one bounce, and printing it would give the sample an authority it has not earned.

Every split prints its own denominator. Any split under eight games is greyed rather than hidden, so the edge of the sample is visible instead of guessed at.
