Ovechkin & Co. are back on top according to our voters. And at the midway point of the season, we identify the best fantasy player for all 32 clubs.

Among goalies born in Canada, Logan Thompson of the Washington Capitals leads the NHL wins (20). He and Darcy Kuemper of the Los Angeles Kings are tied for the lead in save percentage (.924), and Mackenzie Blackwood, now with the Avalanche, is second (.918).

We are firmly into the second half with a neck-and-neck-and-neck race for the top of the fantasy podium. Connor Hellebuyck will surely start getting some additional rest later in the season, so the race at the top right now is between Nikita Kucherov and Nathan MacKinnon.
