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 styleDefensive-minded forward
Trait percentiles vs. NHL wingers · 2025-26
Tomasino is a committed defensive player with excellent impact in his own end and strong physical engagement, but he's producing almost nothing offensively through limited attempts and poor rush execution. He plays a below-the-line game focused on grinding and disrupting rather than creating chances.

Strengths
- Elite defensive impact in top 19% of wingers
- Strong physicality at 70th percentile for position
- Excellent forechecking pressure at 68th percentile
Watch-outs
- Bottom percentile playmaking and rush chances suggest offensive development stalled
- Shooting volume at 32nd percentile keeps him off the score sheet
- Speed at 37th percentile limits his ability to create space

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.
