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 stylePuck-possession finesse winger

Trait percentiles vs. NHL wingers · 2025-26

Duclair is a skilled puck manager who controls play through smart positioning and decision-making rather than relying on tempo or tenacity. He struggles to create rush opportunities and impact play defensively, making him best suited for possession-heavy roles where he can work within the offensive zone.

Where he shoots from

Slot 40% · Mid-range 45% · Perimeter 15%(112 unblocked shots)

Strengths

Puck management in 81st percentile keeps play alive and maintains offensive pressure
Playmaking at 58th percentile enables consistent setup opportunities for teammates
Shot selection with 85% of attempts from high-danger areas (slot and mid-range)

Watch-outs

Forechecking at 0th percentile suggests minimal direct puck recovery in opponent zones
Zone entry creation at 10th percentile limits his ability to generate offense off the rush
Shooting volume at 25th percentile means he relies heavily on others to convert chances

Season total +1.0 goals, or +0.02 per game.

Even strength offense: -0.7
Even strength defense: -1.2
Power play: -0.4
Finishing: +3.6

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.
