NHL Shorthanded Points Leaders: Montreal Canadiens
2020-21All situationsThrough 56 team games
This board ranks every NHL skater by shorthanded points, regular season only, listing players with at least one. Pick any season back to 2017-18 above the table.
Shorthanded points are goals plus assists scored while killing a penalty. Speedy penalty-killing forwards lead, but a single breakaway can decide the ranking. SHP is a category in some leagues and rewards penalty killers who would otherwise score little. Expect the leaders to change every season.
Leader for the Montreal Canadiens in 2020-21: Tyler Toffoli (MTL), 3 SHP.
- Completed seasons use the NHL's official power-play and shorthanded totals.
