Number in orange/parentheses indicated referee’s rank among active officials.
* Penalty Differential represents the absolute value of the variance of penalty calls by team per game. If Team A takes two more penalties (or two fewer) than Team B, this is a 2. Lower numbers indicate less variance between total penalties in a game – that is, a closer number of calls for both teams.
We’ve got referee stats, new rules, new refs, promoted officials, and an updated pronunciation guide for 2024-25.
Here is the NHL’s officating roster for the 2024-25 season:
