2013 Point Predictions

[Dr Jan Itor]

Very simple, how will our new lineup produce (assuming full seasons)?

48 games:

Koivu: 13g + 33a = 46p
Parise: 21g + 22a = 43p
Heatley: 17g + 22a = 39p
Granlund: 8g +25a = 33p
Setoguchi: 13g + 9a = 21p
Brodziak: 8g + 8a = 16p
Clutterbuck: 5g + 4a = 9p

Suter: 4g + 27a = 31p
Gilbert: 2g +15a = 17p
Spurgeon: 3g + 12a = 15p

Left a few off, what do you think?

[Dr Jan Itor]

Pro-rated over 82 games...

Koivu just under a ppg and him and Parise in the 70+ point range
Heatley at ~66 points
Granlund with a very solid rookie campaign of ~56 points
Suter just barely cracks 50 points
Setoguchi with a not too good of a year barely cracking 30 points

 

[TaLoN]

Granlund will get 40pts.

 

[this providence]

Koivu/Parise just under PPG
Heatley ~35 points
Granlund ~25 points.
Brodziak/Cullen/Setoguchi ~20
Cluterbuck ~16

Bouchard ~1 concussion

 

[W75]

Koivu, Parise, Heatley: ~40p
Granlund, Seto, Suter: 25-30p
Brodziak , Cullen, (Bouchard): ~20p
Spurgeon, Gilbert, Clutterbuck ~15p

 

[P10p]

Thinking Granlund is good for 30-40 after seeing him play in the AHL.

 

[Jarick]

Fully expect to be wrong, but...

Heatley: 24-24=48
Parise: 21-27=48
Koivu: 12-36=48
Granlund: 15-24=39
Seto: 15-15=30
Cullen: 9-15=24
Butch: 9-15=24
Brodz: 12-15=27
Clutter: 9-9=18

Suter: 8-21=29
Spurgeon: 3-17=20
Scandella: 5-9=14
Gilbert: 5-15=20
Falk: 2-6=8
Prosser: 2-8=10

 

[Jarick]

Predictions:

- Heatley has a big bounceback year
- Granlund will be better than our tempered expectations
- Butch won't be the same player he was before
- Seto has a nice bounceback year
- Suter will be as advertised
- Spurgeon will continue to breakout
- Gilbert will be better than we expected
- Brodz, Scandella, Falk, and Prosser points lower due to ice time

 

[Billy Mays Here*]

Koivu - Shoulder
Granlund - Concussion
Bouchard - Concussion
Seto - Leg
Heatley - Knee
Parise - Knee
Clutter - Food
Suter - Wife
Backstrom - Groin

 

[this providence]

I laffed. Then sad...

 

[Beegoalie]

Bouchard ~1 concussion

This one made me laugh..

Although I hope its not true cause with PMB we can roll 3 scoring lines.

 

[Beegoalie]

I think Heatley bounces back this season..last year he was the ONLY weapon for 50 games..now he can take a bit of a secondary role with other teams focusing on Parise/Koivu. This is also why I hope they move him to Granlund's line.

Speaking of, with Granlunds passes ending up on the stick of Heater on the PP...

I think this is possible:

Koivu 12-33-45 points
Parise 20-26-46 points
Heatley 25-20-45 points
Granlund 10-25-35 points
Setoguchi 9-9-18 points
Bouchard 5-15 20 points

Suter 3-20-23 points

 

[Beegoalie]

Ill even go out on a limb and say Danny Heatley finishes in the top 10 in goals scored this season. Quote it.

 

[behemolari]

Koivu - Shoulder
Granlund - Concussion
Bouchard - Concussion
Seto - Leg
Heatley - Knee
Parise - Knee
Clutter - Food
Suter - Wife
Backstrom - Groin

this. and hope theyre tanking after 4-10, crazy top10 draft is coming. all the key players locked forever, no need to rush.

edit: suter - wife ..wtf

 

[Generic User]

Doing what I want.

Koivu with 10 goals, 28 assists
Parise with 22+20
Heatley with 25 goals
Granlund with 25 assists, less than 10 goals
Cullen with 12 goals, 12 assists - all in the first quarter of the season
Seto with 15 goals

Suter with 5 goals, 20 assists
Spurgeon with 25 assists

 

[Billy Mays Here*]

I'll do some more serious predictions when I get home from work later tonight.

 

[Bookman]

Fully expect to be wrong, but...

Heatley: 24-24=48
Parise: 21-27=48
Koivu: 12-36=48
Granlund: 15-24=39
Seto: 15-15=30
Cullen: 9-15=24
Butch: 9-15=24
Brodz: 12-15=27
Clutter: 9-9=18

Suter: 8-21=29
Spurgeon: 3-17=20
Scandella: 5-9=14
Gilbert: 5-15=20
Falk: 2-6=8
Prosser: 2-8=10

Pretty close to what I'd have said - thanks for saving me the trouble.

Although, I think one man will overachieve:

Mitchell: 12 goals, 5 assists.

 

[TaLoN]

Koivu - Shoulder
Granlund - Concussion
Bouchard - Concussion
Seto - Leg
Heatley - Knee
Parise - Knee
Clutter - Food
Suter - Wife
Backstrom - Groin

We don't want to ask for bad karma here guys... come on!

 

[Nsjohnson]

I think Heatley will lead in goals with 28
Koivu will have 38 assists
MiG will have 25 assists
Parise will have a matching stat like 21-21

Speaking of Heatley, I was watching the video of them doing drills on MN's website. Does anyone else notice his skating looks more fluid, I really wonder if he was telling the truth when after micro-surgery his knee felt better than it has in 4 years. Once again, it this is the truth, I expect Heatley to have a bounce back year (for a shortened season)

Here's hoping - mock turtleneck sales need a boost.

I think Parise, Suter, and the scoped knee make for at least a temporary Heater comeback, staving off any talk of compliance buyout next summer. Call it 25g-25a/50p.

Granlund 15g-25a/40p

 

[Jaykay]

Parise 18G 26A- 46 points
Koivu 11G 31A- 42 points
Heatley 22G 17A- 39 points
Granlund 12G 22A- 34 points
Setoguchi 15G 14A- 29 points
Butch 9G 18A- 27 points
Suter 3G 22A- 25 points
Cullen 10G 13A- 23 points
Brodziak 11G 12A- 23 points
Gilbert 3G 16A- 19 points
Clutterbuck 10G 8A- 18 points
Spurgeon 3G 12A- 15 points

 

[LordFletcher]

Cullen might get the Art Ross in a lockout year

if he starts out hot again there won't be much room for his stats to decline with the 2nd half of the season not existing.

 

[TaLoN]

Granlund 15g-25a/40p

The Wild need no compliance buyout, they have only $50mil towards the cap next season.
