Ryan McLeod
01/Where he scores from
McLeod scored 14 regular season goals on 132 unblocked attempts from the offensive zone, 2025-26. 7 of them came from inside nine feet of one point — the slot, 15 ft out.
Doorstep. 3 of his 14 goals came from here, on 24 of his 132 attempts.
Slot. 9 of his 14 goals came from here, on 58 of his 132 attempts.
Perimeter. 2 of his 14 goals came from here, on 40 of his 132 attempts.
Point. 0 of his 14 goals came from here, on 10 of his 132 attempts.
Under 150 located attempts, so the counts are raw. A share of 132 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.
McLeod scored 43 regular season goals on 431 unblocked attempts from the offensive zone, 2023-24 to 2025-26. His densest patch is the doorstep, 13 ft out: 15/43 · 35% of his goals came from inside nine feet of that point, against 24% of the league’s goals from the same patch.
Doorstep. 19/43 · 44% of his goals came from here, on 122/431 · 28% of his attempts — 19/122 · 16% of what he sent from there went in.
Slot. 17/43 · 40% of his goals came from here, on 171/431 · 40% of his attempts — 17/171 · 10% of what he sent from there went in.
Perimeter. 5/43 · 12% of his goals came from here, on 112/431 · 26% of his attempts — 5/112 · 4% of what he sent from there went in.
Point. 2/43 · 5% of his goals came from here, on 26/431 · 6% of his attempts — 2/26 · 8% of what he sent from there went in.

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 3 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
6 of his 14 goals came in the 3rd period, on 30 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.
