In a standard hockey game, each team can potentially score a maximum of 3 points per period, for a total of 9 points in regulation time. However, if the game goes into overtime, the total points possible can increase.
The highest score ever recorded in a professional hockey game is 32 points, achieved by the Detroit Red Wings in a game against the New York Rangers in 1944.
One point is awarded for each goal scored in a hockey game, regardless of whether it is a regular goal or a power play goal.
Yes, a team can score more than 3 points in a single period if they have a power play advantage and score multiple goals during that time.
No, there is no limit to how many points a single player can score in a hockey game. However, it is rare for a player to score more than 5 or 6 points in a single game.
