Sidney Crosby
01/Where he scores from
Crosby scored 28 regular season goals on 224 unblocked attempts from the offensive zone, 2025-26. His densest patch is the crease, 8 ft out: 16/28 · 57% of his goals came from inside nine feet of that point, against 34% of the league’s goals from the same patch.
Doorstep. 16/28 · 57% of his goals came from here, on 81/224 · 36% of his attempts — 16/81 · 20% of what he sent from there went in.
Slot. 10/28 · 36% of his goals came from here, on 90/224 · 40% of his attempts — 10/90 · 11% of what he sent from there went in.
Perimeter. 1/28 · 4% of his goals came from here, on 48/224 · 21% of his attempts — 1/48 · 2% of what he sent from there went in.
Point. 1/28 · 4% of his goals came from here, on 5/224 · 2% of his attempts — 1/5 · 20% 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
