Patrik Laine wasted no time making his mark in the playoffs, lighting the lamp in each of his first two games against the Minnesota Wild in the first round. Kyle Connor had his big breakout moment earlier this series in leading his team to a big Game 5 victory over the Nashville Predators with a pair of goals and an assist.
Now the spotlight is shining bright on another young Winnipeg Jets star in Nikolaj Ehlers, who has yet to put a puck in the net through 10 post-season games after doing so 29 times during the regular season, which was third-best on the team behind Laine and Connor.
