What moves the range:
- Shooting %: expected 10.9% — a hot/cold season swings goals by ±4.5 (pure luck).
- Ice time / role: ±7% (line/PP promotion vs demotion) — line & power-play promotion is the biggest upside lever.
- Games played: floor assumes 55 (injury), ceiling 75 (full health) vs 69 expected.
- Linemates: assist swing of ±8.6 tracks how well his linemates finish his setups.
