NHL Projected Shorthanded Assists - Rest of Season - Rest of Season

Shorthanded assists typically come on 2-on-1 rushes created by aggressive penalty killing. Our SHA projections highlight players who excel at forcing turnovers and creating odd-man rushes while down a man. Pair these players with SHG threats for correlated upside.

How SHA happen

Shorthanded assists come from setting up goals while killing penalties. They typically occur on breakaways or 2-on-1 rushes created by turnovers.

SHA factors

- PK partner: Who you kill penalties with matters - Speed: Fast players create breakaway passes - Vision: Elite passers find teammates on the rush - Opponent PP: Sloppy power plays create more opportunities

SHA rarity

Like SHG, shorthanded assists are rare bonus production. They're unpredictable but valuable when they happen.

💡
Pro Tip: Target PK duos who play together. If one gets a SHG, the other likely gets the SHA.

Frequently Asked Questions

We analyze PK unit pairings, historical SHA rates, player passing ability, opponent PP turnover rates, and team PK style to project SHA potential this season.
Playmaking penalty killers who create 2-on-1 opportunities lead in SHA. Centers who win PK faceoffs and transition quickly are primary SHA threats.
Like SHG, SHA are too rare to specifically target. They're bonus production that rewards owning elite two-way players who kill penalties.
Target PK duos from the same team. When a shorthanded goal happens, the player who made the final pass gets the SHA—usually a PK linemate.
