2b. Borje Samuelsson is the best defenseman in the league hands down. Leading all defensemen with 81 points, Samuelsson is an MVP candidate and a front runner for the Stevens. Top-10 in the league in assists for all skaters as well, Samuelsson also excelled defensively, allowing only 2.2 GA/60 on a team that allowed 2.71 GA/60 and 26.8 SA/60 on a team that allowed 28.12 SA/60. With a relative CF% and relative FF% of 3.4 and 2.0 respectively, NEW was much better while Samuelsson was on the ice compared to when he wasn’t.

2c. I would take the Eastern conference goalies. Brick Wall has been the leader among starters in GSAA and sv%, 4th in GAA, and 6th in saves. He's been at the top of the board all year. Casey Fantobens was hot and cold all year, but ended hot and rode that streak all the way to 2nd among starters in GSAA and sv%. He kept a solid GAA, placed 9th in saves, and tied Brick Wall for 2nd with 5 shutouts.

4. Mikko Rashford, what a season he had and I can’t wait to see him in the all star game! He was the second most points in the league 123, led the league in assists with 74, had the highest OGR in the league and had solid advance stats.
