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.

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)
RiskGoals projected DOWN: iSH% ran hot at 13.0% vs a 9.9% 3-yr mark while 5v5 ixG/60 0.53 (40th pct league-wide) was flat — finishing, not process. Regressing iSH% toward 11.2% pulls the goal rate ~14% down.
RiskShot volume down 27% (5v5 SOG/60 4.84 vs 6.66) — volume is the repeatable half, so this caps the goal ceiling.
TailwindTrajectory: 5v5 ixG/60 climbed 0.39→0.67 across the year — process trending the right way into next season.

RiskOn-ice SH% hot at 10.9% vs a 7.6% 3-yr mark — teammate finishing regresses (~8% is league-normal), so some assists come off.
