I posted this a week ago or so that many of the other young guys who just signed a big deal are struggling too so I'm not worried about scoring, everyone has slumps. I'm more worried about his overall game when he is not scoring.

This is an interesting statement. Can you name one guy who scored 20 goals last year that isn't still playing? I'm going to go out on a limb and say that number will be 0.
20 goals is absolutely good enough to get an NHL job. It's not $6.3mil good, but give me a break, 20 goals is still really good in the NHL.
