What NHL EDGE measures

NHL EDGE is the league's puck and player tracking. Zone time is the share of the game the puck spends in each zone (Philadelphia Flyers: 36.9% in the offensive zone, 32nd in the NHL in 2026-27). Speed bursts count every time a skater passes 20 or 22 mph, distance is miles skated per 60 minutes, and shot speed comes from the puck sensor.

Zone time and shot volume settle within a few weeks and track a team's shot share closely. Top speed and the hardest shot are single moments, so they say more about one player than about the team. Burst counts grow with games played, so compare them late in the season or per game.

Offensive-zone time is the most useful number here: teams that live in the offensive zone keep out-shooting opponents. For fantasy, it lifts every skater's shot volume; for betting, it is already part of what the market sees in shot share, so it is context rather than an edge.
