In ice hockey assists are considered as important as goals in terms of stats, with the last two players to touch the puck both getting credited with an assist. Also if the event of an own goal the most recent player to touch the puck on the attacking side gets the credit.
Not really relevant but I find it interesting, it only popped into my head because I check ice hockey stats in Flashscore quite a bit and that’s where I’ve seen them mentioning assists.
