NHL Leaderboard Rush
- You get a hidden leaderboard of about 30 names, and never fewer than 18.
- Players tied at the cut are never split. They’re all on the board or all off it, so a board can end on an odd number.
- Name as many of the players on it as you can, in any order.
- You have 3 lives. Each wrong guess costs one.

What goes into NHL Leaderboard Rush boards
Season boards use points, goals, assists, penalty minutes, plus/minus, goalie wins, shutouts, save percentage or goals-against average.
Points, goals and assists make up about two boards in three, goalie stats about one in five, penalty minutes one in ten and plus/minus one in twenty.
Records boards rank the best single seasons for goals, assists, points, goalie wins and shutouts since 2006-07. There’s no all-time board.
Goalie rate boards only list qualified goalies, so a hot backup with 10 starts won’t be there.
