NHL Goalie Goals Against Leaders

2025-26All situationsThrough 82 team games

This board ranks NHL goalies by goals against, regular season only. Pick any season back to 2017-18 above the table.

Goals against counts every goal allowed while the goalie was in net; empty-net goals are not charged to him. In points leagues GA usually costs points. High totals mostly mean many starts; GAA is the per-game view.

Leader in 2025-26: Juuse Saros (NSH), 181 GA.
