Counts = projected deployment × projected /60 rate, per 82 GP. Rates regress off the process metric (ixG, shot-driving), not last year's finishing %. PP points = projected PP rate (anchored on the 2nd-half PP1 role, finishing regressed) × projected PP TOI.

PP SOG/60 finished the year 148% above where it started (6.39 in the first half, 15.88 in the second). The projection leans on how the season ended, so the second half counts for more.

The blue 26-27 point is our projection. The bold line is all situations; the muted line under it is 5v5 alone, so the gap between them is his special-teams production. Full seasons are true per-82 counts; the 2025-26 H1/H2 reconstruct all-strength from the 5v5+PP quarterly exports plus the season's held-flat PK/other. The projected 5v5 point is the engine's even-strength share of the total, converted to 5v5 by his own 5v5-to-even-strength split, so overtime and 4-on-4 scoring stays out of it.

TailwindGoals projected UP: iSH% cratered to 9.9% vs 13.2% 3-yr while 5v5 ixG/60 0.64 (54th pct league-wide) held/rose — the chances say the finishing rebounds toward 11.1%, lifting the goal rate ~11%.
ContextTrajectory: 5v5 ixG/60 fell from 0.72 (1st half) to 0.56 (2nd).

TailwindHits surging late: Q4 2.48/60 and 2nd-half 3.80 vs a 3.01 season rate (3.19 3-yr) (39th pct league-wide) — reads as a real role/confidence step, so projected UP to 3.11/60, weighting the finish over the 3-yr baseline.
RiskBlocks tailing off: Q4 0.68/60 and 2nd-half 0.85 below the 1.30 season rate — projected DOWN to 1.15/60, weighting the recent decline over the 1.54 3-yr mark.
