Connor Farrell had a heck of a night in the season opener of the Bandits' season in November 2025. He won 26 of 31 faceoffs. For a team that historically has been known for losing faceoffs, this was quite a revelation.
It raised the question, how good was it in team history? It will take a while to figure it out as we go through the records. But here's a list of the best faceoff percentages in a game of the last few years; a player has to take at least 20 draws to qualify. Sometimes the Bandits have tried a number of players at the spot when things haven't gone well in a particular game, so there aren't many truly dreadful numbers presented here. The list does include playoff games.
Yes, Farrell's performance in the past 10 years is No. 1.
