I'm not expecting it but it does happen. Even Barzal was 13th OV in his draft. Was it expected he was going to get 85?

Tons of 50-point rookie years in the last decade from the unexpected or guys rated similar to Coronato

Barzal
Bunting
Panarin
Stone
Gourde
Forsberg
Nylander
Connor
Boesser
DeBrincat
Domi

That is 11 guys in about a decade similar rated prospect to Coronato that had a 50-point rookie year.

For once, can we just have that guy? Maybe Johnny who had 64 was that type but he was rated pretty high by the time he came here so expectations were a bit higher.
