Zach Hyman is one of the BEST Forwards in the NHL Today



Zach Hyman is having a great season for the Edmonton Oilers and not many people realize it.. He’s doing so well that I am ready to say he is one of the BEST forwards in the NHL today!

Today we take a closer look at Edmonton Oiler legend Zach Hyman! In particular we are going to shed light on his excellent season through 3 lenses. We look at his production, see if he passes the eye test, and finish by diving deep into the analytics to see if all three things are saying the same thing… That Zach Hyman is one of the best forwards in the NHL today!

Do you think Hyman is one of the top forwards in the NHL?? Are you a bitter Leafs fan?? Let me know in the comments!

  1. The timing of his goals have been huge too. When the team is lagging Hyman seems to bring it. Lots of times the first goal of the game is by Hyman which is crucial.

  2. Zach Hyman plays like Ryan smyth, both play around the net and both are similar how they both play aggressively with or without the puck, good stuff

  3. Zach Hyman is fantastic, and was fantastic with the Leafs too. He's a player all kids should look up to model their game after.

  4. I'm a leafs fan but I'm not bitter he's playing well lol. He was one of my favourites and him and Kadri are my two favourite non leafs in the league. I was glad Naz won a cup and I'm glad Hymans having a big year. Plus don't forget you also signed Cambell from us so we can call that a wash.

  5. He’s good in both and and is such a good guy who works hard every shift and yes, he is a top 20 forward

  6. Well when you play with McDavid anyone automatically becomes one of hte best forwards in the game. Heck even Pat Maroon scored almost 30 goals when he played with McDavid so…

  7. Zach Hyman is definitely one of the greatest free agency signings of all-time. The fact he's locked up long-term at a pretty damned low salary makes it that much better. And to be honest, even if he falls off a cliff in the last two years of his contract it doesn't matter. He has already pretty much earned that entire contract. And he's such a damned hard worker!!! If you dream of playing in the NHL don't try to be Connor McDavid, try to be Zach Hyman kids

  8. I always pause when a 20 goal scorer drafted in 2010 all of a sudden turns into a 45 goal scorer in 2023.

  9. I enjoy the music and the thorough analytic standpoint unlike some other "eye-test only" youtubers. you've earned another sub my friend! keep it up.

  10. Hyman is only good because he plays with Mcdavid or Draisaitl. The oilers are a flash

  11. Knew that when he was with the Leafs, was so happy when he came to Edmonton. Yes, I am an Oilers' fan. He's going to be absolutely stellar for as long as he plays.

  12. Hyman excellent pick for Oilers. Now to find a couple Defence gold nuggets.

  13. Like your energy and detail…without feeling jnnecessary time-filling diatribes that some other channels seem to have…keep it up bud!

  14. there are 4 forwards with 60 points or more all of them Oilers, and one of them is Zach Hyman

  15. Oiler fan stuck in Ontario
    I remind my leafer buds everyday
