3. Victor Hedman
Victor Hedman had an amazing defensive series, even if his offense wasn’t what fans would expect from him. With zero goals, three assists, and three points, Hedman helped the Lightning get up on the board. However, with a +/- of +2, it shows that Hedman was only on the ice once when the Lightning was scored on. Amazing defensive series by one of the best Swedish defensemen of all time, and fans are looking forward to seeing how well he plays in the conference finals.

Victor Hedman continues to leave his mark on the NHL record book. After assisting on Perry's power-play goal, the #Bolts defenseman is now tied with Brian Leetch for the 15th-most points (97 pts.) by a defenseman in NHL playoff history. #TBLvsFLA
