Each year for the past 10-15 years we've had some sort of team/individual goal scoring guesses.
this year i'm guessing we will score about 230 goals as a team. (2.80 goals per game). (the league average was 2.72 goals per game last year). i also expect goal scoring to be up slightly this year because of an increase in pp's, especially early.
individually (for guys on opening roster) something like;
Forsberg 32 (hopefully more)
Johansson 15 (shoot more!)
Fiala 20 (big hopes here for more)
Hartnell 15 (hopefully more if he gets significant 2nd line and pp time)
Bonino 15 (nothing really to go on yet in this role)
Arvidsson 20 (if he plays on 2nd line i expect his numbers to go down)
Aberg 10 (dependent totally on his playing time)
Jarnkrok 10
Smith 15 (who lnows what we get)
Salomaki 10
Sissons 12
Watson 5 (hope for more)
Mcleod 4
..so that's around 187 from our forwards. (probably overly optomistic honestly for the group)
Josi 15
Subban 10
Ekholm 5
Ellis 5 (missing half a year)
Emelin 3 (nothing really to go on)
Irwin 3
Weber 2
Girard.. ? (if he stays he will score 5 or more replacing some of the above guy's goals)
..so that's 43 from our defensemen (hopefully an underestimate honestly which would be down 12 from last year, partly because i'm trying to account for ellis missing half the year and assuming we focus more on forwards on the pp)
