Roster
Top teammates by points on the Ottawa Senators this season.
Bars are share of unblocked attempts — where he chooses to shoot, over a full season, which is the stable part. xG/100 compares his shot quality from a zone against the league rate for a forward. GAx is goals above expected there, a single season and noisy — zones marked * are flagged small-sample by the generator and are shown muted rather than hidden.
