The most face-offs won in an NHL career (as of 20 December 2023) is 14,837, achieved by Patrice Bergeron (Canada) while playing for the Boston Bruins from the 2003/04 season through the 2022/23 season.

The NHL began officially tracking face-off statistics for records purposes since the 2005/06 season. Face-offs are used to begin and restart play: a referee or linesman will drop the puck at the appropriate face-off spot (or centre spot following a goal or start of a new period), with each team fielding a chosen player to attempt to win possession.
