What moves the range:
- Shooting %: expected 7.7% — a hot/cold season swings goals by ±1.2 (pure luck).
- Ice time / role: ±7% (line/PP promotion vs demotion) — line & power-play promotion is the biggest upside lever.
- Games played: floor assumes 16 (injury), ceiling 26 (full health) vs 20 expected.
- Linemates: assist swing of ±1.1 tracks how well his linemates finish his setups.
