5. Bowen Byram, D, Buffalo Sabres

Byram is part of the Sabres' impressive defense corps through their first seven games of the playoffs.

The 2019 fourth overall pick had a career year, with 42 points in 82 games, and he hasn't slowed down in the post-season. 

Byram is tied for the third-most points on the Sabres in the playoffs, and his four goals are tied with Cale Makar for the most by a D-man in the NHL.

He's also averaging the second-most ice time on the team with 22:38 and is a team-high plus-7.

Byram has found his rhythm, and the second-pair D-man will continue to be a crucial piece for the Sabres if they want a chance to make a run this post-season.
