NHL Blocked Shots Leaders: Vancouver Canucks
2017-18All situationsThrough 82 team games
This board ranks every NHL skater by total blocked shots this season, regular season only.
A blocked shot is an opponent's shot attempt stopped by a skater before it reaches the net. Shutdown defensemen and penalty killers dominate, because they spend the most time in front of their own goal. Blocks are a common peripheral category. Defensemen supply most of them; the forwards and defensemen splits below help when you need one position.
Leader for the Vancouver Canucks in 2017-18: Alexander Edler (VAN), 203 BLK.
