Where he fits on NY Rangers right now.

What he does better or worse than most players at his position.

Every rating, against other forwards.

This season’s 6 games blended with last season’s 64, and pulled toward the average forward by an amount that depends on how quickly each rating settles.

He played for Seattle Kraken last season. Habits that travel with a player (shooting, hitting, penalties) still use that season in full; setting up goals, finishing, faceoffs and power-play chances depend more on linemates and role, so they lean on it less. We measured how much each one carries over for players who change teams.

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 6 games only, pulled toward the average forward. Expect wide ranges this early.
