NHL Hits Leaders, Last 10 Games
2020-21All situationsThrough 10 team games
This board ranks skaters by hits over their own last 10 games played, with the season figure beside it, to show who is hot right now. Ten games is a small sample: treat it as a lead to check, not a verdict.
Hits are body checks credited by the off-ice scorer. Physical third-liners and stay-at-home defensemen lead the league, often while their team spends long stretches without the puck. Compare the last-10 column with the season column: a big gap usually means a new role, new linemates or a streak that will fade.
Leader in 2020-21: Radko Gudas (FLA), 45 HIT (L10).
- Legacy recording: before 2024-25 turnovers and hits were recorded arena by arena with large scorer bias. Compare players within this season only.
- Only players whose last 10 games run to within 14 days of the latest game (May 19) are ranked; 272 players with older windows (injured, scratched or sent down) are left out.

How to read it
Total hits over the player's last 10 games.
How reliable is it?
A 10-game window is noisy: streaks in goals and points rarely last, while shots, hits, blocks and ice time carry over better.
