Who should be the player of the month?

[Garthinater]

Yeah? And? They're still the youngest team in the league and that counts for a lot in a "men's" league. Honestly, it says a lot about how good they could be.

Actually carolina is the youngest, followed by Winnipeg. Edmonton is like number 6

 

[Jephman]

Oilers fan saying a toss up between McDavid, Talbot, and Matthews. All three were lights out. I'd be inclined to give it to Matthews simply because he did this as a brand new rookie.

 

[rynryn]

some great goalie candidates including Dubnyk.
Matthews though...that's some extra good **** considering he's a rookie. And playing for Toronto.

 

[LeafingTheWay]

I hate to be a homer on this one and I do love Connor McDavid but I think Webers statline is more impressive for the month of October.

9GP
4G
6A
10P
+12
3 GWG

vs.

8GP
5G
7A
12P
+9
2 GWG

I mean its not like McDavid won't win this again and again.

I didn't find his game as impressive as the others on this list though.

 

[Aceboogie]

Talbot

 

[Strait2thecup]

Talbots's been great but lol if you're picking him over dubnyk. It's dubnyk and it isn't close

 

[Mike Mike Caron]

Pretty sure Weber's gonna get it.

 

[Brainiac]

Homer vote for Weber.

McDavid would also be a good choice. That kid is unreal.

 

[Apotheosis]

Leafs fan saying Talbot. He's playing out of his mind and the Oilers don't win those games if he isn't playing that good.

Giroux looking great

 

[spacemunky]

Giroux looking great

Him and Simmonds deserve a mention.

 

[Appleyard]

Him and Simmonds deserve a mention.

He won't get it because of '+/-'...

but Giroux has had blame in maybe one goal against all year... a giveaway vs Chicago.

And just to emphasise how awful a stat +/- is he is actually -2 at real 5v5... the other five -5's have came on EN, 6v5 and SH goals.


But, yeh, Giroux especially is just playing immense hockey... 9 games point streak now.

I didn't find his game as impressive as the others on this list though.

That's an intangible
