Most goals scored in NHL playoff game​

The record for the most goals in an NHL playoff game depends on whether you are looking at one team's performance or the total combined score.

The Edmonton Oilers hold the record for the most goals scored by a single team in a playoff game, putting up 13 goals against the Los Angeles Kings on April 9, 1987.

Goals	Team	Opponent	Date	Final Score
13	Edmonton Oilers	Los Angeles Kings	April 9, 1987	13-3
12	Los Angeles Kings	Calgary Flames	April 10, 1990	12-4
11	Montreal Canadiens	Toronto Maple Leafs	March 30, 1944	11-0
11	Edmonton Oilers	Chicago Blackhawks	May 4, 1985	11-2

The record for the highest-scoring game in total was set during the 1982 Division Semifinals.

• 18 Goals: Los Angeles Kings (10) vs. Edmonton Oilers (8) on April 7, 1982.
• 17 Goals: Pittsburgh Penguins (10) vs. Philadelphia Flyers (7) on April 25, 1989.
• 16 Goals: Two games are tied at 16, involving high-scoring matchups from the Oilers (1987) and the Kings (1990).

On May 3, 2026, the Colorado Avalanche defeated the Minnesota Wild 9-6. Their 15 combined goals tied for the third-highest-scoring game in NHL playoff history, matching a feat last achieved by the Flames and Oilers in 2022.
