128 unblocked shots, this season and last, from his point of view. 3 more from outside the zone. Empty nets left out.
6 unblocked shots, this season, from his point of view. 1 more from outside the zone. Empty nets left out.

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.
