The comparable set.
Selection rule. Ryan Lin has no official NHL regular-season game, so the career-similarity rule cannot run. There is nothing to match on. Instead: every player taken within five picks of #21 in the 2026 draft, with what each one has actually done since. 10 neighbours on the board.
Draft neighbours share a night and a scouting consensus, nothing else. Their careers are evidence about the slot, not about this player.

The complete game ledger.
There is no 2025-26 game-log receipt on file for Ryan Lin. The complete ledger is only collected for players who dressed for an NHL club in that season, so nothing here is reported as a run of zeroes.
Insights
NHL Edge tracking.
No Edge tracking on file for Ryan Lin. The league publishes Edge for skaters from 2021-22 onward, and only for players it tracked in the covered season. Nothing is drawn here as a zero, because the absence is a coverage fact rather than a measurement.
The shot map.
No Edge shot-location detail on file for Ryan Lin. The league publishes it for skaters it tracked in the covered season, and Ryan Lin is not in that set for 2025-26. Nothing is drawn as a zero, because an absence from the feed is a coverage fact rather than a measurement.
The development file.
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.
Official endpoint: player landing.
