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 net-clearer
Trait percentiles vs. NHL defensemen · 2025-26
Mahura is a dogged defender who locks down opponents through physicality and effort rather than finesse. He rarely generates offense and struggles to move the puck forward, making him a pure liability-limiting presence.

Strengths
- Defensive impact ranks 90th percentile, anchoring play in the defensive zone
- Forechecking and physicality both elite (84th and 85th percentiles), wearing down opponents
- Puck management at 75th percentile helps him clear trouble without turnovers
Watch-outs
- Playmaking and rush chances both rank near zero percentile, offering little offensive spark
- Shooting volume at just 23rd percentile, taking few chances from anywhere on ice

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.
