NHL Giveaways Leaders: Edmonton Oilers
2026-27All situationsThrough 3 team games
This board ranks every NHL skater by giveaways, regular season only. Pick any season back to 2017-18 above the table.
A giveaway is a puck lost to the opponent through a player's own error. Puck carriers who handle it most give it away most, so stars appear near the top of this list. Giveaways are a negative category in a few leagues. Since 2024-25 the league records about twice as many as before, so compare within a season only.
Leader for the Edmonton Oilers in 2026-27: Mattias Ekholm (EDM), 7 GV.
- Early sample: teams have played at most 3 games in 2026-27. Expect big swings.
