Regular season. The small numbers show how this season compares: green is better, red is worse, gray is neither. Totals like goals are only compared when both seasons have the same number of games. Ice time per game and shooting percentage are compared in every column. Changes in shooting percentage are in percentage points.

Shooting:Ekman-Larsson has scored on 0.0% of his shots this season (0 goals on 3 shots), against 6.0% from 2023–24 to 2025–26. That’s too few shots to tell anything yet.

Rating each of his shots by how often shots like it go in, his chances in 6 of his 7 games (the ones with shift charts so far) were worth about 0.1 goals. He scored 0 in those games, about the same.
