All ratings
Every rating, against other forwards.
This season’s 3 games blended with last season’s 66, and pulled toward the average forward by an amount that depends on how quickly each rating settles.
Shooting volume, creating his own chances, shot blocking, hardest shot and distance skated compare wingers with wingers, because centers and wingers really differ there. Everything else compares all forwards.
This season’s 3 games only, pulled toward the average forward. Expect wide ranges this early.

Hitting, shot blocking and takeaways are arena-adjusted scores (100 is the average forward); switch “Hits and takeaways” to Raw in the settings to see the numbers as recorded. How the ratings work.

131 unblocked shots, this season and last, from his point of view. 7 more from outside the zone. Empty nets left out.
4 unblocked shots, this season, from his point of view. Empty nets left out.

3 missed shots. “Wide left” is from his point of view.
The NHL’s game data records how a shot missed, but not where in the net a goal or save went (glove side, blocker, five-hole). That needs paid camera tracking, so we don’t show it.
Skating and shot
