NHL Goalie Shots Against Leaders: Buffalo Sabres
2025-26All situationsThrough 82 team games
This board ranks NHL goalies by shots against, regular season only. Pick any season back to 2017-18 above the table.
Shots against counts every shot on goal a goalie faced. Starters on teams that bleed shots lead, which is why they also lead in saves. Shots against drive saves in points leagues; a busy goalie on a bad team can still score well there.
Leader for the Buffalo Sabres in 2025-26: Alex Lyon (BUF), 979 SA.
