What 5v5 Points per 60 measures

This board ranks NHL skaters by points per 60 minutes of 5-on-5 ice time, this season. Players under the minimum sample are hidden, and every row shows the games or minutes behind the number. Points per 60 minutes of 5-on-5 ice time, this season.

5-on-5 scoring rates need a few hundred minutes to settle; on-ice shooting luck moves them more than most fantasy managers expect. A row needs at least 355 minutes to qualify, a bar that rises as the season goes on, so early leaders with a handful of games do not crowd the top.

Per 60 minutes at 5-on-5 is the fairest comparison between a top-line player and a depth player, with power-play time taken out. Points are goals plus assists, the classic scoring race. Top-line centres and power-play quarterbacks lead it most years. In 2019-20, 604 skaters qualify for this board; the median is 1.27 and Evgeni Malkin leads at 3.58.
