If you can show me where I said I don't believe it or where I said Monahan and Hudler are guarantees to both hit 30 again, I'll take that bet. Though I'd hate for you to be halfway associated with me agin, I know that bothers you. (Remove that quote if you want by the way. I didn't, in anyway, ask you to put it there, you're forcing yourself into that painful association smart guy)

Thinking regression happens and thinking it's an absolute are different things. All last summer you were throwing around "because shooting percentage" so much it became a meme. Some players have high shooting percentages throughout their careers, Monahan could be one of those guys, hovering between 12-15 wouldn't be out of the ordinary for top line players. Hudler is another one of those guys.

Where your "because shooting percentage" makes sense is for a guy like Lance Bouma, who was never a scorer and his S% of four to six percent skyrocketed to 15.

Both Monahan and Hudler probably get anywhere from 20-25 goals as a safe bet, could easily go higher. Lance Bouma probably won't hit 16 again...

Because shooting percentage.
