While the NHL currently sits in the doldrums of the off-season, the staff here at LBC has decided to take on a Top 25 Under 25 series. These series are immensely popular on other SBNation websites, and help fans to see where their team's players under the age of 25 stand in comparison with each other.
This is the first year LBC is taking on this type of project, and we hope you enjoy the series.
Let's get down to it.

It's not often that an 18-year-old skater leads his team in scoring during the IIHF World Junior Championships, but Denis Malgin did just that, posting seven points (1G/6A) in six games for Switzerland during the 2015 WJC in Canada.
