NHL Faceoffs Won Leaders
2026-27All situationsThrough 3 team games
This board ranks every NHL skater by faceoffs won, regular season only. Pick any season back to 2017-18 above the table.
Faceoffs won counts every draw a player wins. Top-six centres who take 20 draws a night lead the total; the faceoff percentage board shows who wins them most often. FOW is a category in many deeper leagues and favours volume: a centre who takes every key draw beats a better but less used one.
Leader in 2026-27: Elias Pettersson (VAN), 36 FOW.
- Early sample: teams have played at most 3 games in 2026-27. Expect big swings.

How reliable is it?
Totals follow ice time and role; win rates are a real, repeatable skill once a centre has a few hundred draws.
