NHL Projected Shots on Goal - Rest of Season - Rest of Season

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 this season. High-volume shooters provide both floor (SOG category) and ceiling (goal potential).

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.
💡

Frequently Asked Questions

We analyze historical shot rates, line placement, power play usage, opponent shot suppression metrics, and game situation projections to estimate each player's shot volume this season.
Alex Ovechkin, Auston Matthews, and elite D-men like Cale Makar consistently lead in shots. Volume shooters provide reliable floor for fantasy SOG categories.
Very important. DraftKings awards 1.6 points per shot on goal, making high-volume shooters valuable even without scoring. SOG provide floor that reduces bust risk.
Generally yes—more shots create more goal opportunities. However, shot quality matters too. Players with high shooting percentages convert shots to goals more efficiently.
