Interesting. Some questions:
1. Where will NYI finish in the ranking?
2. What will most likely be the PP?
3. Who is likely to have a breakout year or who will surprise in terms of point production? Who is advantaged by the line combinations?
4. Who is likely to have a bad year in point production?
5. How many games each goalie is likely to play?
Ignore the initial response, I quoted the wrong post.
1. I think they'll be WC1 again but 3rd in the division isn't out of the question imo.
2. PP1 will probably be Dobson/Barzal/Horvat/Nelson/Lee, PP2 Aho/Pulock/Pageau/Wahlstrom/Engvall. I'd really like to see Pulock in the Ovi spot.
3. Hoping this is the year Wahlstrom finally breaks out, he looked good before the injury last year but still wasn't quite where he needs to be. the 2nd line was great last year, so I'd definitely say they benefit the most based on line combos.
4. I think Wahlstrom is just as likely to have bad production as he is to break out. I think if he doesn't break out this year he'll be moved, so we'll see how he handles it. Really pulling for him.
5. My guess is it'll probably be Sorokin around 55-60 games with Varly playing the rest.
