DD has been really good in pre-season.
Plus he is going to play with Patches. I expect both of them to get more than 60 points.
There are three options on the right: PAP, Sekac and Gallagher (even Bourque if need be).
So if PAP can not do it, he will go on the third line.
Plek will have more points than last season if he keeps playing with Galchenyuk.
I don't think DD was good this preseason, but it's meaningless. What I'm disappointed with is the fact he came into camp without having tried to add another tool to his arsenal. I really thought he was going to work on his shooting more.
The guy is overly predictable and teams know exactly what he's going to do. I mean, it's to the point where you almost feel he's going to look behind him when on a breakaway to see if passing to Max is a possibility. That's all he does.
So it's all on Max to get DD his assists again, but I don't see him getting over 60pts.
I do however expect Galchenyuk to really come out of his shell this year. Maybe it'll be 20 games in, or 40, but he will. If he's still on Plekanec's line, I believe that line will become our 1st. I think Plek will finish with more points than DD. I think Galchenyuk may end up being our scoring leader up front.
