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.
Selection rule. Forwards only; career games played within ±20% of 367 (or ±10 games, whichever band is wider: 294 to 440); 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: 89 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: every figure and every percentile on this panel is published by the NHL Edge endpoint. This site converts nothing and ranks nothing. 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. Tracked seasons on file for this player: 2021-22, 2022-23, 2023-24, 2024-25, 2025-26.
The shot map.
Hover, tap or focus an area for its exact figures. Net at the top; left and right as the shooter sees them.
Method: 136 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.
Development trails.
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.

Frozen from the local NHL AI Opponent Atlas. These are descriptive career splits through the source snapshot, not a projection of the next matchup and not evidence that the opponent caused the result.
Against the goaltenders.
Cole Sillinger has faced 81 goaltenders in this dataset but none of them for the 20 shots on goal a published rate requires here. The counts exist; the rates would be noise, so they are not printed.
The source receipt.
Career, season, game-log, bio, draft and award rows come from official NHL endpoints. Redraft is a separate hindsight model with its own snapshot clock. Pressure is a descriptive Gamelogs layer. Development Trails uses its own declared clock. Missing evidence stays unavailable rather than being drawn as zero.
