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 stylePlaymaking threat

Trait percentiles vs. NHL wingers · 2025-26

Terry is an elite pass-first winger who dominates through creativity and smart rushes into the offensive zone. He plays a finesse-heavy game lacking physicality, relying on positioning and puck skills rather than heavy forechecking or hitting.

Where he shoots from

Slot 41% · Mid-range 50% · Perimeter 9%(246 unblocked shots)

Strengths

  • Elite playmaking at 96th percentile creates constant scoring chances for teammates
  • Outstanding zone entry ability at 90th percentile fuels high-volume offensive plays
  • Strong puck management at 82nd percentile keeps possession in dangerous areas

Watch-outs

  • Minimal forechecking impact at 3rd percentile limits transition defense contributions
  • Below-average physicality at baseline means he avoids contact and hits rarely
  • Moderate speed at 59th percentile can be exploited by defenders in open ice

Similar style: Luke Evangelista (NJD), Cole Caufield (MTL)

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 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.
