However, factoring in his success, as well as additions like Kris Russell and Matt Benning, many forgot about Oscar Klefbom. The Swedish blueliner, who signed a seven-year, $29.169 million contract last season, has been a force on defence this season.
When it comes to the 23-year-old blueliner, his biggest asset is his shot-blocking prowess. He has 81 blocks through 51 games this season and has 270 shot blocks in 158 career games. Not to mention, Klefbom averages about 4.4 blocks per game. He also serves as one of the most trusted defencemen on the team and can play big minutes on special teams or even strength.
