What this draft slot returns.

Base rate for the exact pick, a history, never a forecastofficial NHL landing

Liam O'Brien was never selected in an NHL Entry Draft, so there is no slot to price. Undrafted careers are not a slot outcome and the page leaves the comparison empty rather than filling it with a stand-in.

The same numbers, in the league that produced them.

Every qualified season levelled to a 3.00-goal NHLofficial final standings · 1990-91 onward

2022-23 is the best season either way: 0.196 raw, 0.185 once the league it happened in is levelled out.

Season	GP	Raw P/GP	League GF/gm	Adj. P/GP
2025-26	38	0.105	3.13	0.101

2022-23Best adjusted	56	0.196	3.18	0.185
2021-22	39	0.077	3.14	0.073

Method: each season's raw points per game is multiplied by 3.00 ÷ that season's league goals per team-game, taken from the official final standings. Seasons under 20 games are excluded. It levels scoring climate and nothing else (not role, ice time, teammates, schedule or injury), so treat it as one comparison, not a verdict.

The comparable set.

Chosen by a printed rule, not by feelNHL dossier pool · 1,162 careers

Selection rule. Forwards only; career games played within ±20% of 265 (or ±10 games, whichever band is wider: 212 to 318); then the five nearest by career P/GP, ties broken by the closest games played. The pool is the 1,162 players in this site's NHL dossier set who own at least one official regular-season game: 66 of them cleared the band.

Similar career shape is not similar player. The rule matches volume and rate only; it knows nothing about era, position within the group, usage or role, and two careers can land on the same line for opposite reasons.

Method: 35 shots on goal in 2025-26, placed by the NHL into the areas it names; each area is shaded by its share of his total, so this map is his distribution and not a comparison to any other player. The percentile column is the league's own for shots from that area, where it publishes one; nothing is converted, ranked or combined. Areas as the NHL names them; the drawing is to rink proportion with the net at the top.

Strict monotonic scoring-rate chains ending in 2025-26. Only 25-plus-game seasons count, and a trail needs at least three consecutive qualified seasons.
