One of the most popular insults in hockey is "cardio merchant" - players who don't seem to do a lot of stuff when they're on the ice.
It's pretty vibes-based, but just for fun I decided to use A3Z and NHL data to find the players with the least "stuff" per 60 at 5v5 in 2024-25:
Over the last 5-6 years teams have gotten better at picking high value guys earlier.
But the Wild will gladly cash that cheque if teams let em slip.
Boldy, Rossi, Wallstedt, Yurov, Buium.
