Haydn Fleury: our analysis

2025-26 season: 38 GP, 2 G, 2 A, 4 PTS, -18 +/-, 13:56 TOI. WAR -0.4 (295th of 325) · PAL 8, very poor.

In 2025-26, Haydn Fleury, 30, posts a PAL Rating of 8 out of 100 (very poor), and his WAR of -0.4 ranks 295th among 325 regulars, in the bottom quarter.

His strengths: creation (71, above average), penalty kill (69, above average) and shooting (62, above average). On the other hand, possession (2, among the weakest in the league) and discipline (7, among the weakest in the league) hold him back.

Breaking down his WAR (goals above average), his biggest contribution: finishing (+0.3); his biggest cost: EV offense (-2.4).

A marked decline: his PAL was 18 in 2024-25, against 8 now; his WAR, though, went from -0.5 to -0.4.

Contract-wise, his Value score of 21 (very poor return) weighs his output against what he costs: 50 is what that salary should buy.

Haydn Fleury's story

Growing up in Carlyle, Saskatchewan, Fleury came through a small-town hockey culture that steered him toward junior ranks early on. He was taken by the Red Deer Rebels in the second round of the 2011 WHL Bantam Draft and established himself there over the following seasons.

During his time in Red Deer he assumed leadership responsibilities, earning an alternate captain role in 2013. Those performances helped him enter the 2014 NHL Entry Draft as a highly regarded prospect; the Carolina Hurricanes selected him seventh overall and signed him to a three-year entry-level deal that summer.

Fleury returned to the WHL after signing and later transitioned to pro hockey with Carolina’s AHL affiliate, the Charlotte Checkers, making his professional debut in April 2015 and finding the scoresheet in that game. Over the next years he split time between the Hurricanes and the Checkers, recording his first NHL points with Carolina in October 2017 and playing a part of the Checkers’ Calder Cup run in 2019. His early NHL tenure included recalls, reassignments and a concussion during the 2018–19 season.

His career then took several turns: traded to the Anaheim Ducks at the 2021 trade deadline, selected by the Seattle Kraken in the 2021 expansion draft, and later signing with the Tampa Bay Lightning as a free agent in July 2022. He joined the Winnipeg Jets on a one-year, two-way contract in July 2024 and scored his first goal as a Jet in March 2026, marking his first goal in two years.

On the ice, Fleury plays a conservative, defence-first game. He is not primarily an offensive defenceman; instead he provides positional play, minutes on the third pairing and the kind of dependability that teams look for when managing defensive depth between the NHL and AHL.
