Questions
Where do these NHL line combinations come from?
From the NHL's own shift chart for each team's most recent game. Every shift is recorded with the second a player went on and came off, so the forwards who were on the ice at the same moments for the longest are that game's lines. They are what happened, not a projection.
Which NHL line played the most together in its last game?
The Wild's Matt Boldy - Joel Eriksson Ek - Kirill Kaprizov, together for 18:50 at all strengths.
Are these tonight's starting lineups?
They are each team's lines from its last game, which is where most teams start the next one. Coaches do change lines, and the starting goalie changes often: for tonight's goalies, see the NHL starting goalies page.
Lines from the NHL's shift charts for each team's most recent regular-season game. Time together is at all strengths, power play and penalty kill included. Updated every few hours.
