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-front winger
Trait percentiles vs. NHL wingers · 2025-26
Miroshnichenko is a shoot-first, physically imposing forward who excels at disrupting opponents and generating chances from close range. He struggles to create offense through passing and regularly loses the puck, limiting his ability to generate scoring opportunities independently.

Goalies are measured by goals saved above expected.
