Based on me looking at those guys exclusively (except Loponen as he's only played one game) I'd say these are my rankings for this season so far:
1. Filip Hallander - leading his team in CF%, driving play extremely well, and still able to finish despite a not good oiSH%.
2. Mikko Kokkonen - Leading his team in ice-time, not easy deployment, and absolutely crushing it in rel.CF%. Hoping the points will come, but at 19 in that league it's impressive as hell. What a comeback season so far.

3. Pontus Holmberg - Driving play in the right direction, good point production. A year older than Hallander.
4. Axel Rindell - Kokkonen, but more points, slightly easier minutes, slightly worse rel.CF%, and one year older than Kokkonen.
5. Topi Niemela - Easy minutes so far, but he's absolutely crushing them. I'd love to see what he can do in bigger minutes. Low-key this guy is gonna be a steal imo.
6. Roni Hirvonen - Production is there, but dude is struggling to push play in the right direction. Plays on a relatively good team (Corsi-wise) too. I doubt it's anything to worry about, but I can't justify him being any higher when he's been a drag on possession as one of the worst at driving play on his entire team.

7. Filip Kral - Getting big minutes on a team that gets shelled. He's not really doing the team any favours, but decent production and it could just be him getting acclimated to big minutes in a pro league. Here's hoping.

8. Eemeli Rasanen - Dude is just getting shelled in tough (2nd most %) defensive starts, but is playing the 5th most ATOI on the team. Unless he figures it the f*** out, I really don't think there's much of a future for this guy.
