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 pace player
Trait percentiles vs. NHL wingers · 2025-26
Tomasek excels at rushing the puck into the zone and disrupting opponents with strong defensive play, but he generates few scoring chances and doesn't create much for teammates. His game is built on effort and positioning rather than playmaking or speed.

Strengths
- Exceptional at pushing pace on offense with 91st percentile rush chances
- Outstanding defensive impact at the 88th percentile limits opponent scoring
- Above-average shooting volume at 69th percentile for a winger
Watch-outs
- Playmaking ranks just 18th percentile, providing little for linemates
- Puck management at 34th percentile leads to turnovers under pressure
- Below-average speed (27th percentile) limits offensive opportunities

Game Score gives credit for everything a player does in a game. Goals (1.0) and assists (0.7 primary, 0.5 secondary) count most; shots, blocks, hits, takeaways, penalties drawn, faceoff wins, killing penalties, and holding down the other team's chances add to it. Only mistakes subtract: goals against at 5-on-5, giveaways, penalties taken, faceoff losses, and allowing more chances than an average player would. A player who is there to defend or kill penalties is not marked down for not scoring. Goalies are measured by goals saved above expected.
