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.

Metrics worth highlighting

The charts that move this projection — where he broke from his own 3-year rate, where the season split in half, and where we’re taking the number next year

Second-half fade

PP TOI

PP TOI finished the year 54% below where it started (1.37 in the first half, 0.63 in the second). The projection leans on how the season ended, so the second half counts for more.

Second-half fade

PP ixG/60

PP ixG/60 finished the year 39% below where it started (2.29 in the first half, 1.40 in the second). The projection leans on how the season ended, so the second half counts for more.

Below his 3-year rate

Hits/60

Hits/60 ran 34% below his 3-year rate last season (5.28 against 8.01).

Above his 3-year rate

ixG/60

ixG/60 ran 19% above his 3-year rate last season (0.85 against 0.71).

SOG

all5v5

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.

Regression read — where next year's /60 rate lands and why (process over finishing)

TailwindProcess rising: 5v5 ixG/60 0.85 (82nd pct league-wide) up on the 3-yr 0.71 — the shot quality is real, so the projected goal rate leans on chances, not a hot %.

TailwindShot volume up 14% (5v5 SOG/60 6.35 vs 5.59) — volume is the repeatable half, so this raises the goal ceiling.

Assists — playmaking & on-ice offense

Primary vs secondary helpers, plus the on-ice offense and luck signals underneath them.

Regression read — where next year's /60 rate lands and why (process over finishing)

RiskIPP spiked to 58.3% vs 49.4% 3-yr — point participation this far above baseline rarely holds; assist share likely gives a little back.

TailwindShot-driving up (5v5 iCF/60 12.53 vs 10.93) — real creation underneath, so don't over-regress the helpers.

TailwindHigh-danger setups up (iHDCF/60 3.96 vs 3.58) — the dangerous chances that turn into primary assists are trending up.

RiskAssist gain leans on secondary helpers (2A/60 0.48 vs 3-yr 0.20) — the least repeatable slice; projected back toward baseline.
