Oliver Kapanen
01/Where he scores from
Kapanen scored 21 regular season goals on 192 unblocked attempts from the offensive zone, 2025-26. His densest patch is the crease, 9 ft out: 8/21 · 38% of his goals came from inside nine feet of that point, against 20% of the league’s goals from the same patch.
Doorstep. 12/21 · 57% of his goals came from here, on 63/192 · 33% of his attempts — 12/63 · 19% of what he sent from there went in.
Slot. 9/21 · 43% of his goals came from here, on 87/192 · 45% of his attempts — 9/87 · 10% of what he sent from there went in.
Perimeter. 0/21 · 0% of his goals came from here, on 38/192 · 20% of his attempts — 0/38 · 0% of what he sent from there went in.
Point. 0/21 · 0% of his goals came from here, on 4/192 · 2% of his attempts — 0/4 · 0% 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.

02/When his goals came
11 of his 22 goals came in the 1st period, on 52 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.
