NHL Projected Shots on Goal Next Week Next Week

Shots on goal are a crucial fantasy category and a strong indicator of offensive involvement. Our SOG projections identify which players are expected to pepper the opposing goalie next week. High-volume shooters provide both floor (SOG category) and ceiling (goal potential) (Mar 2-Mar 8 (Week 22)). (Mar 2-Mar 8 (Week 22))

Week 22: Mar 2 - Mar 8(Upcoming)
Sunday, March 1, 2026

Why shots matter

Shots on goal indicate offensive involvement and goal-scoring potential. In fantasy, SOG is often an overlooked category that can swing close matchups.

Shot volume factors

- Role: Top-line players and PP1 get more shooting opportunities - Style: Some players shoot more frequently regardless of situation - Matchup: Teams facing weak goalies take more shots - Game script: Trailing teams increase shot attempts

League averages

Elite shooters average 3-4 SOG per game. Volume shooters like Alex Ovechkin and Auston Matthews can hit 5+ regularly.

💡
Pro Tip: Defensemen often provide sneaky SOG value—PP quarterbacks like Makar and Fox take lots of shots from the point.
