Market value is what the league pays a forward at his rating percentile this season, from 386 contracts; in 2026-27 dollars against a $104M ceiling. Positive value is the share of 2,000 simulated futures over his 5 remaining years in which that value meets his cap hit.
The number on each bar is his percentile among league forwards with 200 or more minutes at 5-on-5 (special teams: 30 or more minutes on the unit); each block prints the size of that group. Higher is better on every bar; chances against are inverted so 90% always reads well.

Written about him
No San Jose Skater Started As Often In The Offensive Zone Last Season As Mason Marchment Did In Columbus
Mason Marchment scored 45 points in 68 games last season across Seattle and Columbus, and 32 of them came in 39 games after the trade. He also started 69.1 percent of his shifts in the offensive zone, a career high by nine points, and 74.7 percent of them in Columbus. Nobody on San Jose's 2025-26 advanced table, at any games played, reached 69 percent. The bet is that a 31-year-old winger keeps producing on shifts that will start further from the goal he is being paid to score on.
Mason Marchment, and which Mason Marchment
The good half of July 1, a genuine homecoming, and the one question that decides how good.
