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 styleForechecking power forward

Trait percentiles vs. NHL wingers · 2025-26

Jeannot is a relentless physical presence who wins battles and pressures opponents with elite intensity, but he rarely shoots and struggles to create through passing lanes. His forechecking and physicality dominate, yet his shot volume and puck handling limit his offensive ceiling.

Where he shoots from

Slot 57% · Mid-range 31% · Perimeter 12%(124 unblocked shots)

Strengths

  • Elite 88th percentile forechecking drives consistent defensive pressure
  • 93rd percentile physicality makes him a tough matchup down low
  • Strong 76th percentile defensive impact protects team play consistently

Watch-outs

  • 15th percentile shooting volume leaves offense heavily limited
  • 35th percentile puck management means he loses possession frequently
  • 45th percentile playmaking limits his ability to set up 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.
