NHL Goals Leaders

2018-19All situationsThrough 84 team games

This board ranks every NHL skater by total goals this season, regular season only.

Goals scored this season, every situation including the power play and empty nets. The goal race swings more than the points race, because shooting percentage runs hot and cold. Goals are the scarcest scoring category. Check shots on goal beside them: a scorer without the shot volume to back it up tends to cool off.

Leader in 2018-19: Alex Ovechkin (WSH), 51 G.
