NHL Power-Play Goals per 60 Leaders

2017-18All situationsThrough 82 team games

This board ranks skaters by power-play goals per 60 minutes of ice time in all situations, so players with different roles are compared fairly. Players under the minimum-minutes cutoff are hidden.

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. Rates surface low-minute players who already produce power-play goals; they gain the most when their ice time grows.

Leader in 2017-18: Patrik Laine (WPG), 0.89 PPG/60.
