Martin Necas
01/Where he scores from
Necas scored 36 regular season goals on 299 unblocked attempts from the offensive zone, 2025-26. His densest patch is left circle, 29 ft out: 8/36 · 22% of his goals came from inside nine feet of that point, against 6% of the league’s goals from the same patch.
Doorstep. 10/36 · 28% of his goals came from here, on 65/299 · 22% of his attempts — 10/65 · 15% of what he sent from there went in.
Slot. 16/36 · 44% of his goals came from here, on 110/299 · 37% of his attempts — 16/110 · 15% of what he sent from there went in.
Perimeter. 9/36 · 25% of his goals came from here, on 105/299 · 35% of his attempts — 9/105 · 9% of what he sent from there went in.
Point. 1/36 · 3% of his goals came from here, on 19/299 · 6% of his attempts — 1/19 · 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 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.
Necas scored 87 regular season goals on 909 unblocked attempts from the offensive zone, 2023-24 to 2025-26. His densest patch is left circle, 30 ft out: 18/87 · 21% of his goals came from inside nine feet of that point, against 6% of the league’s goals from the same patch.
Doorstep. 28/87 · 32% of his goals came from here, on 163/909 · 18% of his attempts — 28/163 · 17% of what he sent from there went in.

Perimeter. 0 of his 4 goals came from here, on 59 of his 126 attempts.
Point. 0 of his 4 goals came from here, on 11 of his 126 attempts.
Under 150 located attempts, so the counts are raw. A share of 126 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
15 of his 38 goals came in the 3rd period, on 64 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.
