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 hustle winger

Trait percentiles vs. NHL wingers · 2025-26

Hyry plays a high-effort, below-the-goal-line game built on relentless forechecking and physical engagement. He creates chances through aggression but lacks the playmaking touch and defensive positioning to anchor a line.

Where he shoots from

Slot 39% · Mid-range 34% · Perimeter 26%(38 unblocked shots)

Strengths

  • Relentless forechecking at 78th percentile drives puck pressure and pace
  • Rush chance creation at 73rd percentile generates offensive flow
  • Physicality at 69th percentile sets a physical tone

Watch-outs

  • Playmaking at 19th percentile limits his ability to finish teammates' chances
  • Defensive impact at 15th percentile suggests poor positioning and coverage responsibility
  • Shooting volume at 43rd percentile indicates limited offensive threat from scoring areas

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.
