I say he gets the classic Canucks prospect treatment. Board will complain about his ice time and Willie's use of guys like Higgins on the PP and 2nd line instead of him. Scratch for a few games for some AHL plugs and put on the 4th line by WD. Never got a chance and finish with 15-20 points.
Considering Higgins, Bonino and Burrows were all under 40 points last year, I have a hard time projecting 40 points for a guy who has struggled to crack an NHL lineup so far. Say what you will about his potential, and supposed mistreatment in Calgary, he hasn't shown near enough to be confident he'll be a solid 2nd line contributor in his first full NHL season (if he stays on the roster that long).
I predict a Linden Vey-like season, and will hope to be pleasantly surprised.
