NHL Shots on Goal Leaders: Vegas Golden Knights
2017-18All situationsThrough 82 team games
This board ranks every NHL skater by total shots on goal this season, regular season only.
Shots on goal count every shot that the goalie saved or that went in. Volume shooters with power-play time lead the league; shots are the most repeatable scoring stat a skater has. SOG is a standard category and the best early-season predictor of goals. A player shooting a lot but scoring little is usually due.
Leader for the Vegas Golden Knights in 2017-18: Jonathan Marchessault (VGK), 268 SOG.
