There is not much to separate the front runners, but for me, it will come down to Gaudreau, Stone, Ekblad. Ekblad and Gaudreau have name recognition, Stone has a fast finish (which will stick in voter's minds). I think Gaudreau takes it, but it is a closer year than anyone could have predicted:
Gaudreau
Stone
Forsberg
Klingberg
Ekblad
Hoffman
Even a couple of good 1B goalies (Jake Allen, Hutchinson)
