NHL Power-Play Goals Leaders: Forwards

2022-23All situationsThrough 82 team games

This board ranks forwards only by power-play goals, so centres and wingers are not mixed with defensemen.

Power-play goals are scored while the team has more skaters on the ice than the opponent. The leaders are the trigger men of first power-play units: the one-timer from the left circle, the net-front tip. For leagues that split positions: the forward slots' view of power-play goals.

Leader in 2022-23: Leon Draisaitl (EDM), 32 PPG.

How to read it

Goals scored with the man advantage (5-on-4, 5-on-3, 4-on-3).

How reliable is it?

Power-play scoring follows power-play time: the share of a team's PP minutes is far more repeatable than the goal total itself.
