What this draft slot returns.
Base rate for the exact pick, a history, never a forecastdraft-position study · 2026-07-14-prospect-translation-v2.32
2013 draft#42round 2 · NJD
Rates: insufficient sample (n=5 of 32): no NHLer/impact/star/stayer rate shown for this cohort.
Sample: 5 defencemen taken #42, drawn only from classes old enough to judge, on the Schuckers-style pick curve published on Draft Value. A base rate describes a slot, not a person: it cannot predict this career and is not used to grade it.
Floor rule: rates below a minimum sample are suppressed, not shown thin. Exact slot needs 12+ players, the pooled pick-curve band needs 32+, matching this site's builders to the nhl-draft-intel engine's own bucket-calibration floors (12 / 18 / 32).

2017-18 is the best season either way: 0.278 raw, 0.280 once the league it happened in is levelled out.
| Season | GP | Raw P/GP | League GF/gm | Adj. P/GP |

| 2016-17 | 38 | 0.184 | 2.77 | 0.200 |
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.

Selection rule. Defencemen only; career games played within ±20% of 136 (or ±10 games, whichever band is wider: 109 to 163); 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: 23 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.

The percentile column is the league's own, against the tracked population for 2025-26. Speeds arrive in mph and km/h; distance is read in kilometres with the mile conversion stated beside it.

Method: 4 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.

Steven Santini has no shot attributed to a named goaltender in the seasons this dataset covers, so no board is drawn. Nothing is shown as a zero, because the absence is coverage rather than a measurement.
