Goals vs career = goals minus shots × his career shooting %. Career = every NHL regular season before this one, all teams. Skaters under 50 career shots (most rookies) have no fair baseline and aren't listed. Shooting % swings a lot over short stretches and drifts back toward a player's norm, which is why a cold start often means “due”. Shootouts don't count.
