NHL Takeaways Leaders: Forwards

2018-19All situationsThrough 82 team games

This board ranks forwards only by takeaways, so centres and wingers are not mixed with defensemen.

A takeaway is a puck won from an opponent by a skater's own effort, as judged by the off-ice scorer. Smart two-way forwards with active sticks lead the league. For leagues that split positions: the forward slots' view of takeaways.

Leader in 2018-19: Mark Stone (OTT/VGK), 122 TK.
