Top tenth of his pool in assists and points.

Production

Production: percentile among 980 forwards, and the adjusted per-game rate it was computed from
Stat	Pctl	Adjusted per game
Points	95	0.87
Goals	79	0.23
Assists	98	0.64
Shots on goal	92	2.37
Power-play points	92	0.25

Style and role

Style and role: percentile among 980 forwards, and the adjusted per-game rate it was computed from
Stat	Pctl	Adjusted per game
Hits	0	0.11
Blocked shots	4	0.27
Penalty minutes	31	0.29

Further right means more, not better: hits, blocked shots and penalty minutes describe a role, not quality.

What adjusted per game means — not his recorded rate

Adjusted per game is the rate each percentile was computed from: his recorded rate, weighted toward recent games and pulled toward the league average by sample size, so a short career does not read as an elite one. It sits closer to average than the rate recorded, so a skater with no points in his games can still show points per game above zero.

What the ring counts — what a league-average finisher would score from the same attempts

The shot model prices the chance of a goal on every unblocked attempt he took in open play during the regular season; shootouts and penalty shots are left out. Those chances are scaled so that, across the league, they add up to the goals actually scored that season, so the ring is what a league-average finisher would have scored from his attempts and each season is measured against its own average. The gap is his goals minus that; the table below lists the exact figures.
