Exactly four forwards on our entire roster broke the 40+ point mark this past season. I would gladly invite this draftee to join that club.
(The two teams in the finals this year had six (Florida) and four (Edmonton) forwards with 40+ points, so that may not be the best indicator of a “safe 3rd line guy.”)
