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 styleSpeed-driven volume shooter

Trait percentiles vs. NHL centers · 2025-26

McMann is an explosive skater who generates chances at an elite pace through sheer speed and shooting volume, creating a significant offensive presence. However, his defensive positioning and impact lag well behind his peers, making him better suited for offensive roles than as a reliable two-way player.

Where he shoots from

Slot 40% · Mid-range 43% · Perimeter 18%(265 unblocked shots)

Strengths

  • Speed ranks 98th percentile, enabling constant offensive pressure and rush opportunities
  • Shooting volume at 93rd percentile with 265 unblocked shots shows relentless scoring mentality
  • Forechecking at 76th percentile and puck management at 76th percentile create consistent possession advantages

Watch-outs

  • Defensive impact at just 25th percentile indicates vulnerability in his own zone
  • Playmaking at 44th percentile suggests he's less of a creator and more dependent on his own scoring chances

Similar style: Morgan Barron (WPG), Gavin Brindley

Built from play-by-play, shift data, and NHL EDGE tracking. Zone entries is an estimate (rush chances while he is on the ice) until tracking data is added.

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.
