Vincent Trocheck: our analysis
2025-26 season: 67 GP, 16 G, 37 A, 53 PTS, -16 +/-, 20:33 TOI. WAR -0.1 (479th of 615) · PAL 16, very poor.
In 2025-26, Vincent Trocheck, 33, posts a PAL Rating of 16 out of 100 (very poor), and his WAR of -0.1 ranks 479th among 615 regulars, in the bottom quarter.
His strengths: power play (85, among the best in the league) and offense (65, above average). On the other hand, penalty kill (6, among the weakest in the league) and discipline (8, among the weakest in the league) hold him back.
Breaking down his WAR (goals above average), his biggest contribution: power play (+1.3); his biggest cost: EV defense (-2.0).
A marked decline: his PAL was 48 in 2024-25, against 16 now; his WAR went from 0.8 to -0.1.
Contract-wise, his Value score of 7 (very poor return) weighs his output against what he costs: 50 is what that salary should buy.
Vincent Trocheck's story
Leaving Pittsburgh at 13 to move to Detroit with his father, Vincent Trocheck sought a path that would put him in view of scouts. He had skated with the Pittsburgh Hornets as a child and took part in the 2006 Quebec International Pee-Wee Tournament before joining Detroit’s Little Caesars program, where he spent several seasons developing his game.
Trocheck earned an OHL opportunity with the Saginaw Spirit in 2009 and quickly became a key contributor. He established himself as a leader at Saginaw, was named captain in 2012–13 and, after a midseason trade to the Plymouth Whalers, finished the 2012–13 campaign as the OHL’s top scorer. That season brought him the Eddie Powers Memorial Trophy, the Red Tilson Trophy and a place on the OHL First All-Star Team.
Selected 64th overall by the Florida Panthers in the 2011 NHL Entry Draft, Trocheck turned professional in 2013 with the AHL’s San Antonio Rampage. He was recalled to Florida in March 2014, made his NHL debut and scored his first NHL goal on March 14, 2014. Over the next seasons he became a regular in the Panthers’ lineup, signed a six-year contract on July 3, 2016, and was named to the 2017 NHL All-Star Game. On February 24, 2020, he was traded to the Carolina Hurricanes.
Internationally, Trocheck represented Team North America at the 2016 World Cup of Hockey. His junior club, the Saginaw Spirit, honoured him by retiring his number in 2017.
On the ice, Trocheck’s profile is straightforward: a center who creates offence through playmaking and dependable two-way work. He has shown an ability to adapt to different linemates and responsibilities, translating his junior scoring instincts into a consistent NHL presence.
