NHL Power Rankings Shock: Early Surprises That Turned the Season Upside Down

8. Montreal Canadiens, 4-1-0
Sean: 6
Dom: 10
WRONG: Cole Caufield is “just” a scorer.
Caufield is great at the most important part of the game, and that’s always going to count for plenty. Sometimes, though, that can serve as a back-handed compliment — and Caufield is doing his part to change the discourse surrounding him. He’s certainly still scoring, with five goals in his first five games, but he’s doing it on a line with Nick Suzuki that’s providing substantive five-on-five play, as well. If this is the new normal, the Canadiens will be in even better shape than we thought.
