Russian import Evgeny Dadonov and Jonathan Huberdeau pace the Panthers’ offense with 5 points apiece. Not far behind are Nick Bjugstad, Connor Brickley, and Vincent Trocheck each with 4 points. The Panthers’ well-balanced attack has them sitting pretty with a 5v5 GF/60 of 4.18, good for 3rd in the NHL.
The Panthers’ best line according to Corsi +/-, believe it or not, is one that includes Jamie McGinn. McGinn, Radim Vrbata, and Vincent Trocheck, who have a C+/- of +19. That has a lot to do with how good Trocheck is and not that McGinn suddenly turned into a useful hockey player.
