Live Game Tracking

Prerequisite: Confirm Season Availability and Coverage

Understanding which seasons are available, and what level of data coverage is provided, is essential for making reliable and accurate API calls.

Use the Seasons feed to view all available seasons in the API.
Reference the coverage node in a schedule or game endpoint before a game to determine its level of coverage.

📆
Starting Year for Each Season
It's important to note that the season parameter uses the starting year of the season; for example, to retrieve data for the 2024-25 NHL season, you would use 2024 as the value for the season parameter.

Available Game Statistics

For a list of game stats we provide, see our NHL Statistics Summary page.

Accessing Schedules and Live Data

Start by pulling game schedules to obtain game IDs.

Get game IDs (game.id) by querying one of the Schedule feeds.

Use the game.id to access live data from any of the following push and RESTful feeds when the game.status is created or inprogress. The table below shows which feeds correspond to each data type:

Data Type	Recommended Feeds
Play-by-Play/Event Timelines	Game Play-by-Play Push Events
Scoring Updates and Boxscore Data	Game Boxscore Game Summary Push Clock Push Statistics
Game Statistics Beyond Boxscore Data	Game Summary Push Statistics
Analytics (Corsi, Fenwick, etc.)	Game Analytics
Detailed Faceoff Stats	Game Faceoffs
Shot Zone Stats	Game Shot Zone
Detailed Time on Ice Data	Game Time on Ice

🎯
Choose the Most Targeted Feed
Some feeds overlap in the type of data they provide, which can simplify how you capture data. For the most efficient integration, use the feeds designed specifically for the data type you need.
Example: While both Game Boxscore and Game Play-by-Play include scoring updates, the Game Boxscore feed is optimized for tracking scoring changes, helping you avoid unnecessary data processing.
Use the Data Points table for each endpoint (e.g.,Game Boxscore) to see all possible fields and definitions. You can also explore the Game Status Workflow page to see how a game progresses and how its status impacts the data returned.

Live Data Scenarios

Play-by-Play and Event Data

Play-by-play data provides a detailed, sequential account of every event in a game, including shots, penalties, goals, faceoffs, substitutions, icing events and more. This data is useful for analyzing game flow, player performance, and team decisions in real time.

You can use the following feeds to access play-by-play data:

Game Play-by-Play - The most comprehensive live data feed, returning detailed information for a specific game using its unique game.id.
Push Events - Provides a continuous stream of timeline data for all games currently live, with query filtering options to target specific games. Always keep a RESTful backup to track matches in case a Push feed disconnects, since you won’t resume where you left off. For details, see Push Feeds.

Note: There are some differences between REST feeds and their Push feed equivalents (e.g., Game Play-by-Play, and Push Events) with REST feeds typically providing more data. To see the complete set of fields an endpoint can return, review its Data Points section.

You can use play-by-play data to render immersive visuals of the live game by mapping events such as shots, goals, and hits directly onto a rink graphic.

For example, you can use event_type (e.g., shotsaved) to filter for specific types of events, while description provides context for what happened. The location.coord_x and location.coord_y fields let you plot the event on the rink, and details like shot_type and distance can drive play animations. Attributes such as attribution.name (team) and player.full_name provide team and player labels to complete the visualization.

👍
Play-by-Play FAQs
For more details, including the complete list of event types and information on event latency, see the NHL FAQ page .

You can also generate a play-by-play timeline by using fields such as event_type (e.g., faceoff, goaliesave, hit), description, and clock to display the sequence of events within each period. Combine these with player.full_name, attribution.name (team), and location.coord_x / coord_y to show who was involved and where the play occurred, creating a clear, chronological view of game action.

Scoring Updates

Scoring updates include top-level data by period, such as team goals per sequence, that you can use to map to the live clock while displaying your boxscore. They also capture details like goals, assists, strength (even, power play, or shorthanded), and the players involved, which can be aggregated to highlight team leaders in goals, assists, and total points.

The following feeds are optimized to track scores by showing high-level data avoiding unnecessary data processing to render more simple things like a boxscore as opposed to the data needed for a full timeline or rink graphic

Game Boxscore - Provides top-level team scores by quarter and full statistics for team leaders in assists, goals, and points.
Push Clock - Provides a game clock feed with high level scoring and strength information, including the most recent game event.
Game Summary - Provides boxscore information along with detailed team and player statistics. Use this feed if you want richer data for your boxscores. If your primary goal is to track simple score progression or render high-level boxscores, the Game Boxscore and Push Clock feeds are better optimized for that use case.
Push Statistics - Provides detailed, real-time game stats at the team and player level.

Together, these feeds give you flexible options for rendering scoreboards, boxscores, and leaderboards without the overhead of play-by-play or timeline data.

Note: There are some differences between REST feeds and their Push feed equivalents (e.g., Game Summary, and Push Statistics) with REST feeds typically providing more data. To see the complete set of fields an endpoint can return, review its Data Points section.

You can use game and player boxscore data to render a team leaderboard view like the one below by combining team-level scoring by period (scoring.period.points) with player performance metrics such as goals, assists, and shots. These fields allow you to display boxscore totals alongside individual skater contributions, giving fans an overview of both team performance and player leaders.

Other high-level visuals you can generate include easy-to-render scoreboards, mini timelines, team comparison charts, player leaderboards, and more, giving fans quick insights into game flow and standout performances

Game Statistics

Similar to boxscore data, game statistics provide a deeper dive into quantifiable data points from a hockey game, such as saves, goals_against, shots_against, and more.

The following feeds are optimized to track game statistics:

Game Summary - Provides boxscore information along with detailed team and player statistics.
Push Statistics - Provides detailed, real-time game stats at the team and player level.

Analytics

The Game Analytics feed provides hockey analytics. These include possession, shot-quality measurements, and other performance predictors:

Corsi (e.g., corsi_total, corsi_pct) - A measure of all shot attempts (shots on goal, missed shots, and blocked shots) taken while a player or team is on the ice. Often used as a proxy for puck possession. A higher Corsi suggests a team is controlling play.
Fenwick (e.g., fenwick_total, fenwick_pct) - Similar to Corsi but excludes blocked shots, counting only shots on goal and missed shots. Considered a better predictor of scoring chances, since blocked shots are less likely to generate goals.
PDO (e.g., pdo_total) - The sum of a team’s shooting percentage and save percentage. A “luck” indicator. Values far above or below 100 tend to regress over time.
Zone Starts (e.g., offensive, defensive) - Tracks where a player’s shifts begin in the offensive, defensive, or neutral zone. Useful for evaluating player deployment and coaching strategy.

The Game Analytics feed is designed to provide only advanced statistics such as corsi_pct, fenwick_pct. This is ideal if you want to focus specifically on possession and shot-quality metrics. To get the complete statistics, you can use the Game Analytics feed alongside the Game Summary feed, pairing base-level and detailed stats like goals, assists, and shots with deeper analytics to show not just the outcome of the game, but the underlying performance that drove it.

You can also use the Game Analytics feed’s shots_by_type data to break down shot volume and efficiency by type (e.g., snap, wrist, tip) and it's starts_by_zone data to show how often players begin shifts in the offensive, defensive, or neutral zone, highlighting deployment and usage patterns.

To see the complete set of fields an endpoint can return, review its Data Points section.

Detailed Faceoff Stats

A faceoff is a method of starting or resuming play in hockey, where the puck is dropped between two opposing players who attempt to gain possession for their team. While other feeds include faceoff data, the Game Faceoffs feed is purpose-built to deliver it in a dedicated and detailed format.

Use this feed to access detailed faceoff information for teams and players, including period, zone, and strength breakdowns, for a given game.

You can combine the Game Faceoffs feed with statistical feeds such as Game Summary and Game Analytics to build a complete picture of game performance. For example, you can correlate faceoff win rates with possession metrics like corsi_pct or tie them to scoring opportunities captured in the Game Summary.

Shot Zone Data

Shot zone data identifies where on the ice each shot was taken, grouping attempts into defined rink areas (e.g., slot, point, circles) to analyze shooting patterns and scoring chances. The Game Shot Zones feed provides goals, shots, saves, shooting percentage, shots faced, total shot attempts, and other game statistics for players in each zone.

You can pair the Game Shot Zones feed with other statistical feeds like Game Analytics or Game Summary to get a full picture of both where shots are taken on the ice and how effective they are by type, player, and game situation.

Detailed Time on Ice Data

Time on ice is the total amount of playing time a hockey player spends on the ice during a game, tracked across all shifts and special team situations. The Game Time on Ice Feed provides time on ice totals for every player for a given game, including detailed shift information.

Use the time_on_ice data to break down a player’s workload across evenstrength, powerplay, and shorthanded situations, while also tracking per-period totals and individual shift start and end times. This lets you render shift charts, monitor fatigue, and compare average shift length or total minutes played across skaters.
