Edmonton Oilers centre Connor McDavid, Colorado Avalanche centre Nathan MacKinnon, and Nashville Predators winger Filip Forsberg clinched the NHL's three stars for March.
McDavid's remarkable performance included 24 assists and 31 points in just 15 games, steering the Oilers to an impressive 10-3-2 record for the month.
This dominant display not only propelled his team but also positioned McDavid as a strong contender for the NHL scoring title, sitting just one point behind Tampa's Nikita Kucherov and MacKinnon, with a total of 126 points for the season.
MacKinnon, sharing the points lead with McDavid, showcased his elite skills by notching 27 points (11 goals, 16 assists) during March.
Despite being held off the scoresheet only once, on March 28, MacKinnon's consistent offensive contributions played a pivotal role in the Avalanche's success.
His impressive performance extended notable point streaks, including a 35-game overall streak and a 19-game streak at home, highlighting his impact on the team's performance.
Forsberg's outstanding play for the Predators during March cannot be overlooked. With 12 goals and 23 points in just 13 games, Forsberg played a crucial role in lifting the Predators into a wild-card position in the highly competitive Western Conference.
Nashville boasted an impressive 9-2-2 record for the month, largely due to Forsberg's scoring prowess and clutch performances in crucial games.
Jack Hughes values comfort, but the NHL considers mandatory safety gear after a tragic death last season. Changes may be on the horizon for player safety.
