The ability to score thrilling goals, make eye-popping passes, and go to the net with superb skating are the hallmarks of a top wing. NHL Network experts chose the top 20 wings in the League for a special program that premiered Sunday as the third in a nine-part series leading up to the regular season. Here is the list:
20. Viktor Arvidsson, Nashville Predators
Arvidsson led the Predators with 29 goals last season and had 61 points for the second consecutive season. The 25-year-old left wing was plus-20, was tied for fifth in the NHL with three shorthanded goals, and tied for the Predators lead with six game-winning goals. Arvidsson had nine points (five goals, four assists) in 13 playoff games."He's got the kind of skills that can attack 1-on-1 and he's got a point-producing, goal-scoring mentality no matter when he's out there," Johnson said. "Whether it's power play, 5-on-5 or shorthanded, Viktor Arvidsson really makes things happen for Nashville. He's very consistent in the kind of game he plays every night."
