*odds as of January 21, 2025
Current Favorites
Macklin Celebrini (San Jose Sharks): In his first NHL game, Macklin Celebrini tucked away his first career goal and assist. However, the number one pick would also suffer an ankle injury that has forced him to miss around two weeks. Celebrini would return from that injury on November 5th, and in that game, he went on to play 17 minutes and record three shots on goal. In total, Celebrini has played 37 games, and in that span, he has recorded 32 points on 13 goals and 19 assists.
Lane Hutson (Montreal Canadiens): Lane Hutson currently leads all rookies in assists with 35 on the year. While the defenseman has only found the back of the net three times this season, he is tied for 16th in the league in assists through 46 games. After picking up another assist against the Rangers on January 21st, Hutson has recorded 11 assists through nine games in January.
Matvei Michkov (Philadelphia Flyers): When the Flyers drafted Michkov in the 2023 NHL Draft, they received a lot of praise. However, the only problem was that no one knew when the 19-year-old Russian phenom would come over to the U.S. and join the team. Luckily for the Flyers faithful, they only had to wait one season as Philadelphia was able to sign Michkov to a three-year entry-level deal at the end of June.
Michkov has recorded 33 points on 19 assists and 14 goals through 45 career games, making him the first rookie to reach the 25-point marker. The Flyers' young star did receive the first healthy scratch of his NHL career, but he did not let it affect him, as he recorded ten points in November and ten in December.
