[Mikenusca]

Connor, Tatar, Palmieri and Schmaltz, Perron, stick out for me

 

[jonlin]

Schmaltz. Ofc Crosby, McDavid, Scheifele and Barkov could be there, but injuries etc. Schmaltz is IMO the most surprising.

 

[3074326]

I'm not surprised that EK and Seguin are leading their teams in points.

But

I am surprised that they're leading their teams with 40 (EK) and 41 (Seguin) points.

 

[BlueBaron]

Good chance Tartar and Pageau get traded so I pick them.

 

[jetsforever]

Tatar is strange to see there.

 

[The Gr8 Dane]

Elite offensive juggernaut Thomas Tatar leading the way for my scabs love to see it

 

[7even]

Huberdeau, Perron, Carlson, and Tatar are the only ones that made me pause.

 

[Kcb12345]

I'm not surprised that EK and Seguin are leading their teams in points.

But

I am surprised that they're leading their teams with 40 (EK) and 41 (Seguin) points.

I think it's more surprising that Seguin isn't even top 5 on the Stars in goals, and that he's the only Stars forward with more than 20 assists

 

[LokiDog]

Connor, Carlson, Perron, Courerier, Pageau, Draisaitl, Tkachuk and Schmaltz are “surprising”. I’d expect to McDavid, Geadreau, Ovie/Kuznetzov, Giroux, etc.

All could possibly lead their team this year. Who knows.

 

[3074326]

I think it's more surprising that Seguin isn't even top 5 on the Stars in goals, and that he's the only Stars forward with more than 20 assists

That is also very surprising on multiple accounts.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Couturier is surprising. After scoring 103 2 years ago you would expect Giroux to continue to lead them in points.

 

[koyvoo]

Might’ve been Matthews if Marner didn’t miss 11 games.

 

[dss97]

Probably Connor. When I think Jets forwards I think of Scheifele, Laine, Wheeler, and even Ehlers before I think of Connor.

Josi and Couturier are surprising as well

 

[PatrikBerglund]

I'm not surprised that EK and Seguin are leading their teams in points.

But

I am surprised that they're leading their teams with 40 (EK) and 41 (Seguin) points.

Karlsson I get (have you seen the miserable forwards on SJ), but Dallas has a decent amount of firepower, so they should at least have a guy with 50 points by now.

 

[tony d]

Schmaltz in Arizona and Perron in St.Louis stick out the most to me.

 

[POVERTY]

Huberdeau, Perron, Carlson, and Tatar are the only ones that made me pause.

Huberdeau making you pause made me pause.

 

[PatrikBerglund]

Schmaltz in Arizona and Perron in St.Louis stick out the most to me.

Perron has to be the biggest surprise.

 

[Saitama]

Probably Connor. When I think Jets forwards I think of Scheifele, Laine, Wheeler, and even Ehlers before I think of Connor.

Josi and Couturier are surprising as well

You should take a closer look at Connor then, he's got as much skill as the rest of them.

 

[Frank the Tank]

I'd be shocked if anyone at the start of the season had Draisaitl at 90 points in 56.5 games.
