NHL Plus/Minus Leaders: Forwards

2023-24All situationsThrough 82 team games

This board ranks forwards only by plus/minus, so centres and wingers are not mixed with defensemen.

Plus/minus adds one for every even-strength or shorthanded goal the team scores with the player on the ice and subtracts one for every one allowed. Power-play goals for do not count; empty-net goals do. For leagues that split positions: the forward slots' view of plus/minus.

Leader in 2023-24: Zach Hyman (EDM), 36 +/-.

How to read it

Goals for minus goals against while on the ice (power-play goals for excluded).

How reliable is it?

Plus/minus is noisy and team-driven; on-ice goal and expected-goal shares at 5-on-5 tell you more about the player.
