In 2024-25, Conor Geekie, 22, posts a PAL Rating of 18 out of 100 (very poor), and his WAR of 0.4 ranks 256th among 596 regulars, in the top half.
His strengths: discipline (72, above average). On the other hand, creation (20, well below average) and power play (24, well below average) hold him back.
Breaking down his WAR (goals above average), his biggest contribution: penalties (+0.7); his biggest cost: EV offense (-0.5).
Contract-wise, his Value score of 33 (poor return) weighs his output against what he costs: 50 is what that salary should buy.
Conor Geekie's story
Born May 5, 2004 in Strathclair, Manitoba, Conor Geekie rose through local youth ranks before moving into major junior hockey. He posted notable totals at 18U AAA with the Yellowhead Chiefs — 18 goals and 35 points in 26 games — and represented Manitoba at the 2019 Canada Games.
Winnipeg selected him second overall in the 2019 WHL Bantam Draft, and Geekie made a brief WHL appearance in 2019–20. The pandemic-shortened 2020–21 campaign still saw him produce 23 points in 24 games for the Ice, a mark that ranked second among rookies behind Connor Bedard in the available standings.
His first full WHL season, 2021–22, brought 24 goals and 70 points in 63 games, helping Winnipeg finish atop the regular-season standings and reach the conference finals, where he added 11 playoff points. He followed that with 35 goals and 77 points in 66 games in 2022–23. After the club relocated to Wenatchee and became the Wild, Geekie was traded on January 4, 2024 to the Swift Current Broncos in a deal that included multiple players and draft picks, among them two first-round selections.
On the NHL side, Arizona drafted Geekie 11th overall in 2022 and signed him to a three-year entry-level contract on July 18, 2022. When the Coyotes became inactive following the 2023–24 season, his rights were transferred and on June 29, 2024 he was part of a trade to the Tampa Bay Lightning that also involved J. J. Moser, a seventh-round pick and a 2025 second-round pick in exchange for Mikhail Sergachev. He made the Lightning’s opening-night roster for 2024–25 and debuted in the NHL on October 11, 2024.
At the 2024 World Junior Championship, Geekie was assessed a five-minute major and ejected 11 seconds into the group-stage game against Germany for an illegal check to the head; tournament officials did not impose further discipline after review. His older brother, Morgan Geekie, is a forward with the Boston Bruins.
