Frequently asked questions
What's a good power play percentage?
NHL average is roughly 20%; top PP units hit 25–28%. Below 15% is poor. The power play is worth roughly 0.3 expected goals per opportunity, so it's a major momentum and score factor.
Why does penalty kill matter more than power play?
A poor PK directly costs goals; a mediocre PP only loses opportunities. Most analytics show PK efficiency correlates with winning more strongly than PP efficiency.
