1 McDavid - 116

3 Barrie - 58
4 Nugent-Hopkins - 54
5 Puljujarvi - 48
I think Hyman will probably be on that list ahead of Puljujarvi.

Oilers
1. McDavid 154 points
2. Drasaitl 134 points
3. Nurse 78 points
4. Hyman 74 points
5. Puljujarvi 71 points
What's your source for this?
74 is to much but Hyman will break 50 and might get 60 points playing with Mcdavid and on the first power play. Our PP was already the best with Chaisson instead of Hyman. Hyman is not the one that is over estimated, as there is no way Nurse is getting over 70 points.Shattering his career high his by 30! pts.
Really??
If he could score in the 70's, we'd battle to keep him.
He's not better than Nylander.
Best guess
Seguin
Robertson
Hintz
Klingberg
Pavelski/Radulov
Top 3 flirt with 70
Bottom 3 around 50.
Hintz misses part of the season with another injury
Zacha paced for nearly 60 points over 82 this past season scoring 35 in 50. If he only scores 4 more than that in 82 games this season I would be utterly shocked. He was probably our best player a lot of the time last year.Trades could still happen (Eichel, Tarasenko, etc) but I wanted to get your early opinion on the top scorers from each team. I made a list, tell me what you think (this assumes everyone is mostly healthy except players that we already know will miss some part of the season like Gourde, Domi, Toews, Tuch, etc)
NJ
1 Hughes - 61
2 Hischier - 58
3 Hamilton - 56
4 Bratt - 42
5 Zacha - 39
ok... and?
Seems awfully conservative.
He scored that as an 18yo and got 40 in 59 as a 19yo.
You do know that Krueger is gone, right?

If I had to guess:

2. Hughes - 60
3. Zacha - 57
4. Bratt - 55
5. Hamilton - 55
What's your source for this?
Local beat writer on the radio the other day. Basically, he stated because the injury involves multiple ligaments that people shouldn’t expect him back until around the new year.
No, Zacha will hopefully never play center again. Zacha is frankly very bad at center and very good as a winger. He looked infinitely better playing on the wing alongside Hischier and Bratt, and even with Hischier back, Zacha still was playing left wing alongside him rather than shifting to 3C. That line would look downright dominant at times. Although we do have a gap at 3C, I feel like it's more likely that Boqvist becomes the 3C than anything, or, if we acquire a top 6 winger with Fitz has said multiple times he wants to do, Kuokkanen could probably be the 3C.Zacha will be 3C with Hischier back, right? Highly doubt he scores 57 points as 3C
105 in 56The guy just scored 100 in 56...
Reasonable. Except I would have Hughes at around 70Zacha paced for nearly 60 points over 82 this past season scoring 35 in 50. If he only scores 4 more than that in 82 games this season I would be utterly shocked. He was probably our best player a lot of the time last year.

If McDavid actually has a 154 point season like that guy predicted, that’d probably drag Hymans numbers way up even if he is obviously not a 70 point player.Shattering his career high his by 30! pts.

He's not better than Nylander.
HahahahaZegras prob gunna hit triple digits, you sleepin on him
I agree the Nurse prediction is way too high, especially since he doesn’t get PP time, there’s no way he gets anywhere near 78 points.Lol! He was already playing with Marner and Matthews. Assuming Drai and McDavid play on separate lines and Hyman is not on the first unit PP there is no way he hits those numbers. Ryan Smith was a first unit PP fixture.
And Nurse goes from pacing at 53 points last year to 78 points or about a 50% increase!!!!!
Puljaarvi paced for 37 points last year and he’s now getting 71 points or a 90% increase!!!!
Makar will put up more than 75 points
