xGF% is his team's share of 5v5 expected goals while he was on the ice, from our own expected goals model; HDCF% counts only high-danger chances (xG of 0.15 or more). IPP is the share of his team's 5v5 goals while he was on the ice that he scored or assisted on. Relative stats compare him with his team when he was off the ice. Goals above expected and ixG/60 use his own shots at all strengths. PDO and OZS% describe luck and deployment, so their bars are grey.

Play styleDepth playmaker

Trait percentiles vs. NHL centers · 2025-26

Janmark excels at controlling play through intelligent puck movement and aggressive rush entry, but struggles to generate offense with limited shooting and forechecking bite. He's a complementary piece who manages possession well in a support role.

Where he shoots from

Slot 59% · Mid-range 21% · Perimeter 21%(39 unblocked shots)

Strengths

  • Excellent puck management (84th percentile) keeps play moving efficiently
  • Elite at generating rush chances (86th percentile) to create offensive opportunities
  • Solid positional defense (45th percentile) holds his own at even strength

Watch-outs

  • Rarely shoots the puck (1st percentile) limits goal-scoring threat
  • Weak forechecking impact (16th percentile) doesn't generate turnovers
  • Minimal physicality (9th percentile) avoids direct confrontations

Game Score gives credit for everything a player does in a game. Goals (1.0) and assists (0.7 primary, 0.5 secondary) count most; shots, blocks, hits, takeaways, penalties drawn, faceoff wins, killing penalties, and holding down the other team's chances add to it. Only mistakes subtract: goals against at 5-on-5, giveaways, penalties taken, faceoff losses, and allowing more chances than an average player would. A player who is there to defend or kill penalties is not marked down for not scoring. Goalies are measured by goals saved above expected.
