Which NHL clubs have the best power play?

2026-27 · measured from NHL shift charts and play-by-play

By Rich Jasinski · 1 October 2026 · updated nightly while the season runs

Colorado is the league's best: 4.000 power-play goals a game from its two measured units combined. The ten below are ranked on that same number — both units, every game, goals credited only for the seconds the five were actually out together.

How this is measured

Both measured units' goals, summed, divided by the club's games. PP% beside it is the league's own conversion rate for the regular season. Ten clubs listed; the full 32 are on the teams page.
