Good starts!

[Bossy22]

We all know Ovechkin has had a great start. It who's having a great start "under the radar"?

Yakupov - 3 goals already(same as all of last year)

 

[geschrocks33]

Evander Kane - 4 goals, 6 points already on a bad start Sabres team.

Semyon Varlamov... 3-0 to start the season

Sonny Milano - 4 goals already

Jesper Bratt - 6 points and a +5 in three games

Nikita Zaitsev - 5 points, +7 in 4 games for the Leafs

Red WINGS

Martin Frk (Rookie!) 3 GOALS IN 4 GAMES

Mike Green 8 assists (4 on the PP - for a team that was atrocious last year on PP)

 

[sdpdesign]

Dustin Brown is showing the offensive touch early on. 3G, 5pts, including 11 Hits!!! Leading or tied for the team.

 

[FrozenInferno]

Nikolaj Ehlers. Looking better than Laine out there so far this season.

Saad - Chicago. 5 goals, 2 assists, 7 points.

Kuznetzov - Washington. 10 assists, 10 points.

Leafs, Vegas, Devils, Wings.....lots of teams off to good starts.

Very true. I'd also have to add the Senators, who have blew out both Edmonton and Calgary. In my opinion, these teams - Devils, Golden Knights and Senators are all overachieving. I think they will come back to reality eventually.

Yakupov - 3 goals already(same as all of last year)

and he has added 2 assists in six games. :clap:

He over half way (nine points in 40 games) from last years totals.

I'm not sure it's really "under the radar" but the trio of Namestnikov-Stamkos-Kucherov is ripping it up so far

:kings: 6-0-1 to start the season :crazy:

Yeah, definitely a big surprise. The Kings, Devils and the Sens are the three biggest overachievers this season by far. My guess is they will all come back to reality eventually.

Kings have the big horses to stay in the upper echelon all year, not sure about the Sens and Devils goaltending unless those guys have career years. That said, yes, even I am surprised LA is off to this hot of a start.

what the heck is up with Las Vegas????

 

[DKenyon28]

Forsberg is having an amazing October

what the heck is up with Las Vegas????

I read that their shooting percentage is almost double the average - something like 13%. Most teams have a SP of around 6 to 7%. Seems like they're just getting lucky. Go figure a team in Vegas, getting lucky, ha. :snapout: I don't believe that is sustainable. I know they beat Colorado, not the greatest team, but come on, 7 to nothing? Wow, is all I have to say.

 

[Orca Pod]

Derek Dorsett.

Of course, with his current 6G, 2A is probably about 90% of what he'll get all season, but who expected Derek Dorsett to get 6 goals all year, let alone in the first 10 games.

It's actually quite humourous he's the Canucks' leading scorer.

 

[junyab]

Stamkos and Kucherov on pace for 151 pts and 132 pts respectively.

what the heck is up with Las Vegas????

My thoughts exactly. :snapout:

With their AHL goalie tending the twinn, they keep rolling up the wins. :veryhappy:
