Winnipeg Jets center Mark Scheifele took second star after recording points in 10 of 11 games, tying for the NHL lead with 9 goals and finishing second overall with 9-9—18 points. This marked his first career selection for the monthly honors. Scheifele led the Jets in goals (9), points (18), power-play goals (3) and game-winning goals (2), while his nine assists tied Kyle Connor and Josh Morrissey for the team high. He surpassed Blake Wheeler as the franchise's all-time points leader with his 813th point, a power-play goal against the Nashville Predators on October 18. Scheifele began the season with a six-game point streak (7-3—10) from October 9-20, including goals in five straight (7-0—7), and closed the month with points in four consecutive games (2-6—8).

Montreal Canadiens goaltender Jakub Dobes rounded out the honors as third star with a flawless 6-0-0 record, a 1.97 goals-against average and .930 save percentage in six starts. The 24-year-old rookie made at least 30 saves in three games and allowed two or fewer goals in four, becoming the 10th rookie goalie in NHL history to win his first six starts of a season. Dobes ranked first among qualified goaltenders in 5-on-5 save percentage (.959), tied for second in wins (6), third in high-danger save percentage (.918), and fourth in goals-against average (1.97) and save percentage (.930). His efforts helped the Canadiens to an 8-3-0 record and 16 points, leading the Atlantic Division. Following a 4-3 overtime win over the Seattle Kraken on October 28, Dobes joined Carey Price, Wayne Thomas and Ken Dryden as the fourth Canadiens goalie since 1967-68 to start a season with at least six straight wins.
