What moves the range:
- Shooting %: expected 15.7% — a hot/cold season swings goals by ±6.1 (pure luck).
- Ice time / role: ±7% (line/PP promotion vs demotion) — line & power-play promotion is the biggest upside lever.
- Games played: floor assumes 63 (injury), ceiling 82 (full health) vs 79 expected.
- Linemates: assist swing of ±11.3 tracks how well his linemates finish his setups.
