The rankings apply to standard-scoring leagues. Skaters accumulate value via goals, assists, plus/minus, penalty minutes, power-play points, and shots on goal. Goalies track wins, goals-against average, save percentage and shutouts.
| Rank | Player | Position | Team |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Alex Ovechkin | LW/RW | WAS |
| 2 | Jamie Benn | LW | DAL |
| 3 | Johnny Gaudreau | LW | CGY |
| 4 | Evgeny Kuznetsov | C/LW | WAS |
| 5 | Filip Forsberg | C/LW/RW | NAS |
| 6 | Joe Pavelski | C/LW/RW | SJ |
| 7 | Taylor Hall | LW | NJ |
| 8 | Brad Marchand | LW | BOS |
| 9 | Tyler Toffoli | C/LW/RW | LA |
| 10 | Max Pacioretty | LW | MTL |
| 11 | Artemi Panarin | LW | CHI |
| 12 | Wayne Simmonds | LW/RW | PHI |
Hall moves to a significantly less crowded forward corps in New Jersey, where he should be leaned on more heavily than he was being used this past season in Edmonton. He should push for close to 300 shots on goal. Expect some regression from Panarin, after he scored on 16 percent of his SOG in his rookie year.
| Rank | Player | Position | Team |
|---|---|---|---|
| 13 | Jakub Voracek | LW/RW | PHI |
| 14 | Logan Couture | C/LW | SJ |
| 15 | James Neal | LW/RW | NAS |
| 16 | Ryan O'Reilly | C/LW/RW | BUF |
| 17 | Jonathan Huberdeau | C/LW | CGY |
| 18 | Daniel Sedin | LW | VAN |
| 19 | Zach Parise | LW | MIN |
| 20 | Milan Lucic | LW | EDM |
| 21 | Alexander Steen | C/LW | STL |
| 22 | Patrick Sharp | LW/RW | DAL |
| 23 | Gabriel Landeskog | LW | COL |
| 24 | Brayden Schenn | C/LW | PHI |
Voracek suffered a substantial drop in points last year as a result of shooting just over five percent. A return to his 10 percent success rate from the previous season will prop up his point total substantially. Sedin will have his typically lofty workload in an otherwise unappealing Canucks offense.
| Rank | Player | Position | Team |

| 25 | Alex Galchenyuk | C/LW | MTL |

| 58 | Chris Kunitz | LW | PIT |
| 59 | Nick Foligno | C/LW | CLB |
| 60 | Patrick Marleau | C/LW | SJ |
The loss of D P.K. Subban will be felt throughout the Canadiens lineup, but a full year playing center with Pacioretty could support Galchenyuk's stats. He could see some playing time with RW Alexander Radulov as well. MacArthur is played in just four games last season, missing 78 due to concussion symptoms. He tallied 24 goals and 55 points in his most recent full season.
