NHL Goalie Losses Leaders
2021-22All situationsThrough 82 team games
This board ranks NHL goalies by losses, regular season only. Pick any season back to 2017-18 above the table.
A regulation loss is charged to the goalie in net for the goal that decides the game; overtime and shootout losses are counted separately (OTL). A few leagues score losses as a negative. High totals usually mean heavy usage on a weak team rather than poor play.
Leader in 2021-22: Karel Vejmelka (ARI), 32 L.
