Justin Faulk
01/Where he scores from
Faulk scored 15 regular season goals on 195 unblocked attempts from the offensive zone, 2025-26. His densest patch is right circle, 32 ft out: 4/15 · 27% of his goals came from inside nine feet of that point, against 7% of the league’s goals from the same patch.
Doorstep. 2/15 · 13% of his goals came from here, on 15/195 · 8% of his attempts — 2/15 · 13% of what he sent from there went in.
Slot. 7/15 · 47% of his goals came from here, on 45/195 · 23% of his attempts — 7/45 · 16% of what he sent from there went in.
Perimeter. 3/15 · 20% of his goals came from here, on 72/195 · 37% of his attempts — 3/72 · 4% of what he sent from there went in.
Point. 3/15 · 20% of his goals came from here, on 63/195 · 32% of his attempts — 3/63 · 5% 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 140 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, 2011-12 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 5 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
9 of his 16 goals came in the 2nd period, on 50 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.
