Saturday night’s 4-2 win over the Calgary Flames vaulted them over the New York Rangers and Boston Bruins into first place in the NHL with 98 points. That’s the most points they’ve had in a season since 2015 and there are still 11 games to go.
The team’s star players are a big reason for that, with J.T. Miller, Elias Pettersson, and Quinn Hughes all well above a point-per-game, with Miller, Pettersson, and Brock Boeser all above 30 goals.Höglander is averaging under 12 minutes per game this season but has made an outsized impact in that limited ice time, scoring his 21st and 22nd goals of the season against the Flames.
Pettersson and Garland were, indeed, out there a lot but Höglander played just 12:59 in ice time, third lowest on the team ahead of only Vasily Podkolzin and Nils Åman on the fourth line. “Höggy really had his legs tonight early, got us going on the forecheck and for us undersized guys, we've got to spread them out in the D zone and that's kind of what we did and created a lot of chances,” said Garland.
