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 surge

1A/60

1A/60 finished the year 44% above where it started (0.58 in the first half, 0.84 in the second). The projection leans on how the season ended, so the second half counts for more.

Second-half surge

SOG/60

SOG/60 finished the year 23% above where it started (5.72 in the first half, 7.07 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.

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

ContextFinishing looks earned: iSH% 8.8% sits near the 10.8% 3-yr mark with 5v5 ixG/60 0.82 (78th pct league-wide) — goals held close to last year.

RiskShot volume down 23% (5v5 SOG/60 6.49 vs 8.47) — volume is the repeatable half, so this caps the goal ceiling.

Assists — playmaking & on-ice offense

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

RiskOn-ice SH% hot at 9.8% vs a 8.2% 3-yr mark — teammate finishing regresses (~8% is league-normal), so some assists come off.
