NHL Points per 60 Leaders

2020-21All situationsThrough 57 team games

This board ranks skaters by points per 60 minutes of ice time in all situations, so a fourth-liner who plays 9 minutes is compared fairly with a top-pair defenseman who plays 25. Players under the minimum-minutes cutoff are hidden.

Points are goals plus assists, the classic scoring race. Top-line centres and power-play quarterbacks lead it most years. Rates surface low-minute players who already produce; they are the ones to grab when an injury opens up ice time.

Leader in 2020-21: Connor McDavid (EDM), 5.08 PTS/60.
