How to read these numbers
- Games are the games Matthew Kessel played (with ice time; a scratch or a dressed backup goalie who did not play is not a game).
- Season tables are regular-season games only. The game log includes playoff games, labeled, and reaches into last season when needed.
- A dash (–) means the statistic is not recorded for that game, never zero (hover it for the reason). A column with no recorded value is left out.
This page shows statistics and results only. It contains no sportsbook prices or betting lines. Current markets, hit rates against the line and StatsNext research are in the app.
