I also don't think Huberdeau hits 100 points again, but I do think he and Tkachuk will score at similar paces over the next five years, depending on where Huberdeau plays.
I would actually be surprised if Huberdeau or Tkachuk hit 100 points again. It's hard to do, and especially hard to repeat. For some reason, it seems like many players produced outside of norms las season. I haven't looked too hard, but I suspect there were way more players above a PPG pace than in most years.

Huberdeau was one of those guys as well. He beat his previous high by 23 points and more than 0.3 points per game, same as Tkachuk pretty much who beat his previous high by 27 points and also 0.3 point per game. Both of them seemed to overachieve by similar margins, but one is 5 years younger than the other.
