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 center

Trait percentiles vs. NHL centers · 2025-26

Lowry is a tough, high-impact defender who uses his physical presence and smart positioning to shut down opponents. He moves the puck cleanly and plays a workmanlike game, though he rarely shoots and doesn't generate offensive chances at a high rate.

Strengths

Elite defensive impact at 80th percentile keeps teams honest
Strong puck management at 84th percentile keeps play clean
Exceptional physicality at 79th percentile disrupts opponents

Watch-outs

Shooting volume at 22nd percentile limits goal-scoring upside
Speed at 43rd percentile can slow transition play
Rush chances at 41st percentile restricts offensive chances

Game Score adds up a player's impact in goals compared with an average player given the same ice time: his share of expected goals for and against at even strength, on the power play, and on the penalty kill, plus finishing (goals minus expected goals), primary assists, penalties drawn and taken, and faceoffs. Goalies are measured by goals saved above expected.
