From Edward Fraser at The Hockey News,

With that said, there are still several youngsters who will play key roles during this season’s run to the Cup. Here are five fab freshmen to keep your peepers peeled for:

I will be watching Carey Price pretty closely, it would be quite the story if he led them to the cup. The other 4 guys on that list have the potential to be big. I’d like to see Backstrom make up for that goal he scored during the Pittsburgh game and come out and show the world what he can do. PLAYOFFS ARE HERE!!
