It’s probably not ideal for the Kings that Corey Perry, a man old enough to have used dial-up internet, leads them in goals per 60, with 1.74. It should lessen the sting, though, that he’s ahead of players like Connor Bedard, Tage Thompson and Jack Hughes. Cup final loss, here they come!

Between Jack Eichel, Mitch Marner, Mark Stone, Tomas Hertl and Pavel Dorofeyev, the Golden Knights are getting a lot of high-powered scoring. Falling through the cracks a bit is Ivan Barbashev, who has eight goals and 20 points in 23 games — with all but one assist happening at five-on-five. Barbashev not only leads the team in five-on-five points, but he’s tied for third in the league.
