2 in top 10, 3 in top 20 rookie scoring

[Canadian Time]

In my opinion this is pretty remarkable, the Rangers have a couple but no other team is close. I love it when young players kick down the door for spots. I think it's clear that the Sens didn't expect all of them to stick, thus the full compliment of contracts, but they are.

It's a great problem to have. Now to watch them grow and develop.

Well, don't keep us in suspense, who are these top rookies? Hoffman is one, I think. Who else?

 

[Canadian Time]

Hoffman, Stone and Lazar.

It's awesome because these guys are earning their points and aren't a product of their line mates (well maybe Lazar). Hoffman and Stone are cementing themselves as legitimate top 6 wingers.

Hoffman, Stone and Lazar.

Cool, thanks. Hoffman has looked dangerous the last couple of games I watched the Sens. Well-deserving of more playing time for sure.

Calgary has 3 guys in the top 10 right now.

...don't know what that says about us then.. They're ahead of LA and SJ, we're behind the leafs

Our most consistent young player this season has been Ceci, and he wont show up on lists like this. Lehner has been a touch more spotty at times, but in general he has been brilliant as well.

This team has definitely embraced a youth movement. It is fun to watch now, and if the core stays together they will be lights out in about 3 years or so.

Really? You post a thread title like that and don't offer any sort of list?

Rookie scoring leaders are always a combination of talent and opportunity.

We have a lot of spots free in our line-up and some decent looks at icetime compared to other teams.

I'm not sure what it says about our comparative prospect pool but it's nice to see our young guys contributing.

Being in the top 20 in rookie scoring isn't all that impressive

We need just 1 more elite young player, imo.

Hoffman is 25 does he even count?

I think people forget this too often. He is a late bloomer, which means he will hit the ceiling of his potential faster than if he was an 18 or 19 year old. Still a great guy to have on the team though.
