Cam York: our analysis
2025-26 season: 74 GP, 4 G, 22 A, 26 PTS, +5 +/-, 22:32 TOI. WAR 0.3 (130th of 325) · PAL 77, very good.
In 2025-26, Cam York, 25, posts a PAL Rating of 77 out of 100 (very good), and his WAR of 0.3 ranks 130th among 325 regulars, in the top half.
His strengths: defense (90, among the best in the league), penalty kill (86, among the best in the league) and creation (84, well above average). On the other hand, power play (18, well below average) holds him back.
Breaking down his WAR (goals above average), his biggest contribution: EV defense (+3.9); his biggest cost: finishing (-2.9).
An improvement on 2024-25, when his PAL was 73; his WAR, though, went from 0.9 to 0.3.
Contract-wise, his Value score of 64 (good value) weighs his output against what he costs: 50 is what that salary should buy.
Cam York's story
Growing up in Anaheim, Cameron York spent afternoons on a backyard skating surface his father installed, a habit that fed his early development. He began with the Anaheim Jr. Ducks minor program, shifted to defence after teammates were injured, and learned the position while skating alongside players such as Jackson Niedermayer.
At 14 he moved to Shattuck‑St. Mary's in Minnesota and compiled more than 100 points over two seasons. That progression led to the USA Hockey National Team Development Program; in the 2018–19 USHL campaign he set a single‑season points record for a defenceman and on January 15, 2019 logged seven points in one game, earning USHL Defenseman of the Week honours.
Originally committed to Boston College, York withdrew his pledge after coach Greg Brown left and instead enrolled at the University of Michigan for 2019–20. The Philadelphia Flyers selected him 14th overall in the 2019 NHL Entry Draft. He scored his first collegiate goal on November 2, 2019 against Ohio State. In 2020–21 he led Big Ten defencemen with 20 points (4 goals, 16 assists), including five power‑play points, and was named Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year and to the First Team All‑Big Ten.
Philadelphia signed him to a three‑year entry‑level deal on March 31, 2021. York made his NHL debut on May 7, 2021 versus Washington. His first NHL point came January 8, 2022 (an assist to James van Riemsdyk in a 3–2 OT win over San Jose) and his first goal followed on January 15 against the New York Rangers. He signed a two‑year contract on July 10, 2023 and later a five‑year agreement on July 7, 2025. In the 2026 playoffs he scored the overtime series‑winner in Game 6 of the first round against Pittsburgh.
Internationally, York was named to the U.S. squad for the 2018 IIHF World U18 Championships, recording 6 points and earning a spot on the Media All‑Star Team as the U.S. took silver. Recalled for the 2019 U18 tournament, he set the U18 World Championship scoring mark for a defenceman; his combined 17 points across the two events brought several tournament honours and a bronze medal. On the ice he is best described as an offensively engaged defenceman: mobile on the blue line, able to generate power‑play offence and set up teammates with precise puck movement.
