NHL Team Hits Rankings

2018-19All situationsThrough 82 team games

This board ranks every NHL team by hits, regular season only. Pick any season back to 2017-18 above the table; each team links to its own players' hits.

Team hits add up every body check credited to the team's players. Hit counts depend on the home arena's scorer, and teams that chase the puck more hit more.

Leading in 2018-19: Pittsburgh Penguins, 2,363 HIT.
