NHL Hot Offenses
Scoring Surge: Boston Bruins Lead NHL Offenses This Week
Published
This one is team-level by necessity, and honestly the scoreboard tells the story fine. The last seven days of NHL finals, ranked by goals per game.
Who's piling it on
Boston Bruins lead the league at 4.0 goals per game, 8 in two games, while allowing 3 over the same stretch. The formula has been simple: score first, score often.
Right behind them: Seattle Kraken, averaging 4.0 goals themselves.
Pittsburgh Penguins are part of the conversation too, at 4.0 goals a game.
Where the scoring stops
Columbus Blue Jackets bring up the rear at 1.0 goals per game over 2 games. Every lineup goes quiet sometimes; theirs has picked now.
Top to bottom, the gap runs 3.0 goals per game, which over a week is the difference between a lineup that scares people and one that just hopes to keep things close.
The board
The leaders, in one glance:
| Team | Games | Goals | Per game |
|---|---|---|---|
| Boston Bruins | 2 | 8 | 4.0 |
| Seattle Kraken | 2 | 8 | 4.0 |
| Pittsburgh Penguins | 2 | 8 | 4.0 |
| Florida Panthers | 2 | 8 | 4.0 |
| Montreal Canadiens | 3 | 11 | 3.7 |
One more thing
Everything above is counted from completed games in the window and nothing else: no strength-of-schedule massage, no projections, just the scoreboard.
Scoring comes in waves. This is where the wave is right now, where it breaks next is anybody's honest guess.
Next up on the slate: Boston Bruins against Philadelphia Flyers. Check back after that one goes final.
