NHL Shorthanded Goals Leaders: Edmonton Oilers
2026-27All situationsThrough 3 team games
This board ranks every NHL skater by shorthanded goals, regular season only, listing players with at least one. Pick any season back to 2017-18 above the table.
Shorthanded goals are scored while killing a penalty. They are rare, a few per player at most, and usually come from fast forwards on the penalty kill who jump on a bad pass. SHG is a rare category: the leaders often have only three or four. Penalty-kill time is the only real predictor.
Leader for the Edmonton Oilers in 2026-27: Kasperi Kapanen (EDM), 1 SHG.
- Early sample: teams have played at most 3 games in 2026-27. Expect big swings.

How to read it
Goals scored while the team is short a skater.
How reliable is it?
Very low counts: a shorthanded goal total from one season says little about the next.
