Ian Cole
01/Where he scores from
Cole scored 3 regular season goals on 100 unblocked attempts from the offensive zone, 2025-26. No single patch of ice holds an unusual share of them.
Doorstep. 0 of his 3 goals came from here, on 3 of his 100 attempts.
Slot. 2 of his 3 goals came from here, on 21 of his 100 attempts.
Perimeter. 1 of his 3 goals came from here, on 32 of his 100 attempts.
Point. 0 of his 3 goals came from here, on 44 of his 100 attempts.
Under 150 located attempts, so the counts are raw. A share of 100 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.
Cole scored 6 regular season goals on 296 unblocked attempts from the offensive zone, 2023-24 to 2025-26. No single patch of ice holds an unusual share of them.

Unblocked attempts — shots on goal, goals and misses — taken in the offensive zone, 2010-11 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 — 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.
02/When his goals came
1 of his 3 goals came in the 1st period, on 22 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.
