📋 What the NHL Stats Scraper does

Five lookup modes in a single run:

• 🏆 Standings. Current 32-team league standings with conference + division grouping, point totals, regulation wins, goal differential, home / away / last-10 records, and streaks.
• 📅 Schedule. Games on a chosen date (defaults to today). Filter by season type: R (Regular), PR (Preseason), PO (Postseason).
• 📊 Team Stats. Club season stats for one or many teams (skaters and goalies merged) for a chosen season code.
• 👤 Player. Player landing page for one or many player IDs, with sweater number, position, height, weight, birth info, draft details, headshot, hero image, career totals, and featured stats.
• 📋 Roster. Current roster for one or many teams, grouped by forward / defenseman / goalie with bio fields.

Each standings record includes the canonical NHL identifiers, team logo URL, official metrics from the live feed, and a direct link to the team page.

💡 Why it matters: hockey moves fast, and accurate standings and roster data underpin every fantasy product, betting model, and fan-facing dashboard. Building your own pipeline means juggling NHL's data feed, normalising IDs across season types, and refreshing for every game day.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

🧩 How does it work?

Pick a mode (standings, schedule, teamStats, player, or roster), supply the relevant inputs, and click Start. The Actor pulls fresh records from the official NHL feed and emits a clean structured row per team, game, or player.

🏒 Which teams are supported?

All 32 NHL teams across the Eastern and Western conferences and the four divisions (Atlantic, Metropolitan, Central, Pacific).

📅 Can I get postseason games only?

Yes. Set seasonType to PO (Postseason) and the Actor restricts the schedule to playoff games. PR covers Preseason and R covers the Regular Season.

📊 How do I look up team season stats?

Set mode to teamStats, supply teamAbbrev (or batch with teamAbbrevs), and set season to the eight-digit season code (e.g. 20242025). The Actor returns merged skater + goalie stats with positions and counting metrics.

👤 Can I pull individual player landing pages?

Yes. Set mode to player and supply playerId (e.g. 8478402 for Connor McDavid). Use playerIds for batch lookups (up to 100 per call).

🖼️ Do I get team logos and player headshots?

Yes. Standings include direct logo URLs and player landings include headshot and heroImage URLs ready to embed.

⏰ Can I schedule regular runs?

Yes. Use Apify Schedules to run this Actor every minute, hourly, or daily. The dataset always reflects the current state of the live feed.

⚖️ Is this data legal to use?

Only publicly available scoreboard data is collected. Review the NHL's terms of use for your specific use case, particularly if you redistribute or commercialise the content.

💳 Do I need a paid Apify plan to use this Actor?

No. The free Apify plan is enough for testing and small runs (10 records per run). A paid plan lifts the limit and unlocks scheduling and higher concurrency.

🔁 What happens if a run fails or gets interrupted?

Apify automatically retries transient errors. If a run still fails, you can inspect the log in the Runs tab, fix the input, and re-run. Partial datasets from failed runs are preserved so you never lose progress.
