Mark Pysyk#13
D with Buffalo, 2012–13 to 2015–16, 2021–22
On-ice PDO 1.007 (5v5 on-ice shooting plus save percentage). PDO over one season is noisy, it regresses hard toward 1.000, so read it as recent puck luck rather than a skill.
Each line is the metric's rolling 10-game value across the last 20 games, so it ends on the Last 10 figure. The dashed line is the player's season average (50% for On-Ice xGF%), with navy shading for time spent above it and gray for below. Gold ticks mark goal games. Descriptive only, small samples swing.
Career With Buffalo
All-time is the rank among the 529 skaters with a regular-season game for Buffalo since 1970–71. Ties share a rank.
Season by Season
The dashed line is a league-typical aging curve for a defenseman, scaled to this player's own level. Above it means producing more than a typical player that age; the line falling away faster than the curve means declining faster than the aging curve alone would explain.

* Shortened season. Weigh its totals against a full 82-game year with that in mind.
pct under a P/60, xG/60, GAx and CF% figure is where that season ranks, as a percentile, among every Sabres defenseman season since 2016–17 with at least 12 games; a season under that floor isn't ranked. xG/60, GAx and CF% come from this site's own xG model and shift-chart reconstruction, not an NHL feed; P/60 is from official NHL totals. Higher is better throughout.
