Brandon Saad has yet to score but he has played very well on the wing with Jonathan Toews and Marian Hossa. The rookie got his chance to play on the top unit when Daniel Carcillo went down with a lower body injury in the opener and he has been improving ever since. "He's hungry, he's playing hard and playing fearless," Toews said. "He's showing he's gaining confidence with the puck. With Hoss and I, we're getting better and better as a line. We're keeping the puck down low more, and Saader is showing his work ethic. He's hungry for that first one. We keep working as a line, he's going to get it and we're going to get it going as well." Saad was taken in the second round, 43rd overall in the 2011 Draft but has shown that he should have been a first round pick since then. He is worth selecting in keeper leagues.
