Ekblad has already amassed 10 points (2G/8A) on the season, including eight points in eight games this month. The rookie defender is quickly paying dividends for fantasy fans and will be a great find on the waiver wire this weekend. Add this teenager before he becomes a household name.

Niederreiter has already proven that he is a natural goal scorer, as he is leading the team with nine goals. He has seemingly replaced veteran Thomas Vanek on the second line and the youngster could finish with over 50 points. Add him now while you still can.

3. D Jared Spurgeon, Minnesota Wild

Spurgeon is one of the best kept secrets in fantasy. He has eight points in 13 games and has become a steady point producer. He also consistently racks up hits and blocked shots in deeper roto formats. Spurgeon is an amazing find at this point in the season.

2. C Mike Ribeiro, Nashville Predators

Ribeiro is thriving in the middle of the Filip Forsberg/James Neal line. The veteran shockingly has 16 points already, including five goals and 12 helpers. The Preds are scoring at will right now, which makes Ribeiro a must-own.

1. C Sean Monahan, Calgary Flames

Monaham is another youngster making waves this season. He has scored eight goals already to go along with five assists in only 21 games. The 2013 first rounder has earned his spot in the lineup and will be a scoring threat for the rest of the season. If you need a scorer, add him kid as soon as possible.
