Damon Severson
01/Where he scores from
Severson scored 8 regular season goals on 141 unblocked attempts from the offensive zone, 2025-26. No single patch of ice holds an unusual share of them.
Doorstep. 1 of his 8 goals came from here, on 16 of his 141 attempts.
Slot. 3 of his 8 goals came from here, on 35 of his 141 attempts.
Perimeter. 2 of his 8 goals came from here, on 44 of his 141 attempts.
Point. 2 of his 8 goals came from here, on 46 of his 141 attempts.
Under 150 located attempts, so the counts are raw. A share of 141 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.
Severson scored 23 regular season goals on 381 unblocked attempts from the offensive zone, 2023-24 to 2025-26. His densest patch is right circle, 39 ft out: 4/23 · 17% of his goals came from inside nine feet of that point, against 2% of the league’s goals from the same patch.
Doorstep. 2/23 · 9% of his goals came from here, on 40/381 · 10% of his attempts — 2/40 · 5% of what he sent from there went in.
Slot. 10/23 · 43% of his goals came from here, on 96/381 · 25% of his attempts — 10/96 · 10% of what he sent from there went in.
Perimeter. 9/23 · 39% of his goals came from here, on 135/381 · 35% of his attempts — 9/135 · 7% of what he sent from there went in.
Point. 2/23 · 9% of his goals came from here, on 110/381 · 29% of his attempts — 2/110 · 2% of what he sent from there went in.

Severson scored 80 regular season goals on 1,760 unblocked attempts from the offensive zone, 2014-15 to 2025-26. His densest patch is right circle, 43 ft out: 11/80 · 14% of his goals came from inside nine feet of that point, against 2% of the league’s goals from the same patch.

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 1 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
4 of his 8 goals came in the 1st period, on 31 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.
