What Points per Game: last 30 days measures
This board ranks NHL skaters by points per game played, all situations, over the last 30 days. Players under the minimum sample are hidden, and every row shows the games or minutes behind the number. Points per game played, all situations, over the last 30 days.
A short window is a small sample: shots, hits, blocks and ice time carry over from week to week far better than goals and points do. Treat a hot window as a lead to check, not a verdict. A row needs at least 5.5 games to qualify, a bar that rises as the season goes on, so early leaders with a handful of games do not crowd the top.
The last 30 days show who is hot right now, which is what waiver decisions turn on. Per game puts players who missed games on equal footing with those who played them all. Points are goals plus assists, the classic scoring race. Top-line centres and power-play quarterbacks lead it most years. In 2026-27, 549 skaters qualify for this board; the median is 0.40 and Connor McDavid leads at 2.89.
