What it does

This actor pulls live and historical NHL data in four modes:

• Scores: one record per game for any date. Matchup, goals, live status, period and clock, home and away records, venue and attendance, broadcast networks, betting line when posted, and the goals, assists and points leaders for each team. Optional per-game team box score and an optional AI matchup summary.
• Standings: one record per team with conference, division, playoff seed, wins, losses, overtime losses, points, points percentage, games behind, current streak, goals for and against, goal differential, and home, away, last ten and division splits.
• Teams: one record per team (all 32) with location, nickname, colors, logo, home arena, and current standing summary.
• Roster: one record per player for a chosen team with jersey number, position, position group, height, weight, age, birthplace, years of experience, and headshot.

It is built for NHL fans, sports betting and fantasy hockey tools, media sites, and app developers who need clean, structured NHL data without maintaining a scraper.

Billing and limits

• Pay per result. You are charged per record returned. Empty runs (for example a date with no games) return nothing and are not charged for results.
• Events. apify-actor-start (one-time per run), result (one game, standing, team or player), plus optional game_boxscore (per-game team box score) and ai_matchup_summary (per-game AI summary). Add-ons are opt-in, off by default, and available on paid plans only.
• No charge on failure. A record is only billed when real data is produced. Box score and AI events are billed only when they actually return content.
• Free plan cap. Free Apify accounts return up to 10 records per run. Paid accounts can raise maxResults.
• Spend cap. The actor respects your run maxTotalChargeUsd and stops emitting billable records once the limit is reached.

FAQ and troubleshooting

No records came back for my date. That date had no scheduled games. Try a date during the season, for example a regular season or playoff day.

Which team abbreviations work? Standard NHL abbreviations such as EDM, TOR, BOS, COL, NYR, VGK. You can also pass a numeric teamId.

Are betting lines always included? The puck line, over/under and moneyline are included when a sportsbook line is posted for a game, otherwise they are null.

What is in the box score add-on? Shots on goal, hits, blocked shots, takeaways, giveaways, power play goals and percentage, faceoffs won and win percent, and penalty minutes for each team.

How fresh is the data? Scores reflect live game state including the current period and clock. Standings and rosters reflect the current season.
