There has been plenty of negative chatter surrounding the NHL[1] in recent days thanks to the John Scott All-Star travesty[2]. We prefer to look at some positives.

It's unfortunate that so much has gone wrong with what the league intended to be a fun and interactive way to improve the All-Star format—which was completely botched when the fans played a cruel joke by voting the former Arizona Coyotes enforcer in as the Pacific Division captain. It all came to a head with the three-way trade that put Scott in the minors and unsure of his future[3].

So enough about what looks like a feel-good story gone wrong. Instead, let's take a look at some of the positive storylines from the first half of the NHL season.

There have been some great performances from veterans and rookies alike, some major milestones and some inspiring stories of injuries overcome.

Here's a look at the top feel-good storylines so far in the 2015-16 NHL season.
