NHL Team Stats Legend

Team Statistics for NHL can be useful in daily fantasy when looking at skaters or goaltenders. For skaters, team stats can help you understand which offenses are most potent and might be worth a line stack. For goalies, you can find out how well your team defends and how well their opponent attacks. All of this can be combined to make well-educated daily fantasy decisions every night.
