Anthony Beauvillier has played significant minutes in Washington’s top six during 2025-26 but has not reached the 20-goal mark. HockeyViz on-ice impact visuals compare team shot and scoring tendencies when he is on the ice, showing where offense and defense are driven. The visualization uses red or orange blobs to indicate more shooting from specific ice locations and blue or purple blobs to indicate less, with league-average comparisons for finishing, playmaking, and drawing or taking penalties. Synthetic Goals provides a single catch-all impact number. Evolving Hockey player cards use GAR and xGAR to measure goals above replacement and adjust for league-average goaltending, while NHL Edge tracks shot speed, skating speed, skating distance, shot location, and zone time.
"This image by Micah Blake McCurdy of hockeyviz.com shows how the player has impacted play when on the ice. At the top of the image is the team's offense (even strength at left, power play at right) and at bottom is the team's defense (with penalty kill at bottom right). In each case, red/orange blobs mean teams shoot for more from that location on the ice, and blue/purple means less. In general, a good player should have red/orange blobs near the opponent's net at top, and blue/purple blobs near their own team's net at bottom."
"The distributions in middle show how the player compares to league average at individual finishing, setting up teammates to score, and taking and drawing penalties. The number at center is Synthetic Goals: a catch-all number for the player's impact."
"This card from Josh and Luke of Evolving Hockey compares the player to league averages based on their impact on on-ice statistics. GAR means “goals above replacement,” where “replacement” means an average player called up from the AHL. xGAR is the same figure but assuming league-average goaltending. The numbers at top are the player's percentile ranks overall and then for offense and defense alone."
"The NHL's advanced statistics program, Edge, tracks player and puck movement. The player's shot speed, skating speed, and skating distance are at top along with percentile rank. At bottom left is a shot location map, and at bottom right is zone time per zone."
