Brady Skjei DRAGGING the Canes to a game 5 and keeps their season alive.

I've been saying it over and over again FFS, he is the leader of that defence. Where tf has Slavin been, huh? All the accolades, but I don't see him scoring key goals and making key plays.

Seriously, ya better re-sign him Canes. Ya f***ing better!

He is a former Ranger, so it checks out.

For Dallas I'd say it's been Stankoven so far. Every time he's on the ice, offense or defense, the dude has a serious impact on the play. He's creative offensively, excellent passer and shooter, tenacious on the backcheck, able to scrum it out on the boards, create turnovers, and despite his size is also very aggressive and not afraid to get physical. He literally does it all. You can tell he's only 20 and has energy to burn, this guy is just a constant spark plug for this team. Even if he's not scoring, he's putting pressure on the opponent constantly to give the other lines a chance to breathe before hopping back out there. He may not be the highest have the highest ppg yet, but in my mind there's no question this team doesn't get through the West without him.

HM: Oettinger, Heiskanen, Johnston

Slavin made a really lazy play that led to the loss of possession and eventually the 3rd NYR goal.

Surprised that the Canes won the game as it just looked like one of those games that was going to slip away.

The runaway leader for the Conn Smythe right now is McDavid but the Oilers need to advance and I doubt that the CS winner will ever not advance to the SC finals.

Stank and Wyatt have been dynamite everytime I've seen them on the ice this post season. Amazing poise for such young kids. Damm they draft well.

He does impress me… even moreso due to his size.

As much as I love Stank, there’s a handful of guys I give it to on the Stars before Stank. He needs to get on the sheet more if he wants a chance at it.

Edmonton: McDavid, Draisaitl, HM: Hyman
Vancouver: JT Miller, Boeser, HM: Zadorov
Dallas: Heiskanen, Wyatt Johnson, HM: Oettinger
Colorado: Makar, Mackinnon, HM: Lekhonen

NYR: Shesterkin, Trochek, HM: Zibanejad
Carolina: Aho, Guenztel, Skjei
Boston: Swayman, Marchand, HM: DeBrusk
Florida: Barkov, Tkachuk, HM: Verhaege

If Hyman keeps this goal scoring pace up he would be my pick.

Edit: Also adding Barkov.

Benning goofed on not picking the Stank. That was a terrible oversight and i wanted him
