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 673 (or ±10 games, whichever band is wider: 538 to 808); 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: 102 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: 88 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.

Method: every shot is attributed to the goaltender the feed says was in the net (details.goalieInNetId). Blocked shots and empty-net events are both excluded, the first because the puck never reached a goaltender and the second because there was none to charge. Shooting percentage is goals divided by shots on goal, the league definition. The league baseline of 10.2% beside each rate is computed from the same 241,107 shots this dataset counted, so the two figures are measured the same way. A 20-shot minimum is a small sample by any standard and these boards will move; they are a record of what has happened, not a prediction of what will.
