Rossi's numbers went up this year mostly because of Ek's injury. 1st line duty and 1st PP when your top 2 players are injured are inflationary, also maybe Guerin didn't like the type of points Rossi got, Minnesota were on there way to missing the playoffs until Ek and Kaprizov came back
Personally I would tread on the careful side, there's a reason Minnesota doesn't want to pay him the money on having a 60pt season, they likely see him as a 40-50pt player.

Rossi #1 linemate was Kaprizov and they played together at the start of the season. Ek is a great 2-way center, more of a checker. He will play away from Kap and match up against the other team's top lines.
Kap injury should have hurt Rossi, but he actually played well in his absence.
