A solid career by KV-H: a well-rounded profile that scores 51 of 100, era-normalized against int/g peers across 4 scored seasons, with a short career trimming the score.
Blend 54.2 × longevity 0.93 = KV-H 51· confidence 94%
Season-by-season quality (era-relative int/g)
1 pre-1999 season omitted — no era norm (honest coverage gap, not fabricated).
