NHL Power-Play Points per 60 Leaders

2017-18All situationsThrough 82 team games

This board ranks skaters by power-play 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.

Power-play points are goals and assists scored with the man advantage. They belong almost entirely to first-unit (PP1) players, so the board doubles as a map of who runs each power play. Rates surface low-minute players who already produce; they are the ones to grab when an injury opens up ice time.

Leader in 2017-18: Phil Kessel (PIT), 1.64 PPP/60.
