Top 10 Assisted Goal Scorers
By Joe Keegan | Mar 30, 2020
Five of six offensive players are playing off-ball at all times. To be effective, those players need to know how to play without the ball in their stick. These ten pros can score in a number of different ways: backdoor cuts, slips off picks, time-and-room from range, or quick-sticking on the doorstep. Here are the league leaders in assisted goals.
