Jack Hughes
01/Where he scores from
Hughes scored 26 regular season goals on 304 unblocked attempts from the offensive zone, 2025-26. His densest patch is left circle, 29 ft out: 6/26 · 23% of his goals came from inside nine feet of that point, against 8% of the league’s goals from the same patch.
Doorstep. 6/26 · 23% of his goals came from here, on 67/304 · 22% of his attempts — 6/67 · 9% of what he sent from there went in.
Slot. 15/26 · 58% of his goals came from here, on 154/304 · 51% of his attempts — 15/154 · 10% of what he sent from there went in.
Perimeter. 4/26 · 15% of his goals came from here, on 70/304 · 23% of his attempts — 4/70 · 6% of what he sent from there went in.
Point. 1/26 · 4% of his goals came from here, on 13/304 · 4% of his attempts — 1/13 · 8% 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 — 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.

Under 150 located attempts, so the counts are raw. A share of 60 shots moves by more than a point on one bounce, and printing it would give the sample an authority it has not earned.

02/When his goals came
12 of his 27 goals came in the 3rd period, on 66 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.
