Sergei Bobrovsky: our analysis

2025-26 season: 52 GP, 27 W, 23 L, .877 SV%, 3.07 GAA, 4 SO. WAR -2.2 (93rd of 98) · PAL 22, below average.

In 2025-26, Sergei Bobrovsky, 38, posts a PAL Rating of 22 out of 100 (below average), and his WAR of -2.2 ranks 93rd among 98 regulars, in the bottom quarter.

His strengths: workload (80, well above average). On the other hand, impact (6, among the weakest in the league) and efficiency (11, among the weakest in the league) hold him back.

GSAx: -20.1 (goals saved above expected).

A marked decline: his PAL was 74 in 2024-25, against 22 now; his WAR went from 1.9 to -2.2.

Contract-wise, his Value score of 15 (very poor return) weighs his output against what he costs: 50 is what that salary should buy.

Sergei Bobrovsky's story

Raised in Novokuznetsk, Sergei Bobrovsky learned his craft in the Metallurg organization, progressing from the club’s junior ranks into the Superliga and drawing early attention with Russian junior teams. He logged significant minutes during the 2007 Super Series and helped Russia capture bronze at the 2008 World Junior Championship.

Undrafted, Bobrovsky left Russia for North America in 2010 after signing a three‑year entry‑level deal with the Philadelphia Flyers on 6 May 2010. Initially slated as organizational depth, he earned his NHL debut on 7 October 2010 and established himself as a reliable young netminder in his rookie campaign.

Columbus became the defining stop after he was traded there on 22 June 2012. With the Blue Jackets he assumed the starting role, winning the Vezina Trophy in 2012–13 and again in 2016–17 following a season in which he led or ranked among the leaders in major goaltending categories. He set franchise marks and played a part in several firsts for Columbus. On 1 July 2019 he signed a seven‑year deal with the Florida Panthers, and with Florida he reached a career apex by backstopping the team to Stanley Cup championships in 2024 and 2025.

Internationally, Bobrovsky represented Russia at junior levels and the Super Series, experiences that bookend his development and early reputation. Those tournaments preceded his move to the NHL and remained part of his résumé through later national team call‑ups.

In plain terms, Bobrovsky’s game is defined by steady positioning, rebound control and an ability to respond after rough patches—traits that underpinned his Vezina seasons and playoff runs. Milestones pepper his CV: he surpassed the Russian goaltending wins record in February 2023 and, as of 2026, ranked among the top goaltenders in total wins in NHL history.

WAR and PAL ratings, 2025-26

How we rate →

PAL Rating scores performance from 0 to 100 against players at the same position (50 = average player), starting from the player's strength, offensive or defensive. Value Rating compares that performance with what the player costs: 50 means paid what the play is worth.
