we can recap last year's performers
Drasaitl 52 goals. This season's outlook- turning 30, remains one of the feared goal scorers in the NHL
Hyman 27 goals. This season's outlook- useful player (TSN has him pencilled as LW1 on Team Canada), just turned 33 and coming off injury
McDavid 26 goals. Will turn 29 years old this year, an offensive dynamo
Nuge 20 goals. This 32 yo former 1OV has one career 30 goal season. pencilled in as McDavid's linemate
Skinner 16 goals - is his career over? waiting by the phone
Arvidsson 15 goals- shipped as a cap dump to Boston
Kane 0 goals- shipped to Vancouver somehow
my guess is the new sure fire 7 are the first 4 above, Evan Bouch Bomb Bouchard, Andrew (turning 30 and got rich of my one 30 goal season 3 years ago) Mangiapane and Matt (19 goals in the AHL) Savoie |
Podkolzin will hit 30 because he's getting better and will get more ice time with Perry gone, plus McDavid.
Frederick will hit 30 because he was given an eight year deal and that's how stars are born in Edmonton, plus McDavid.
Henrique will hit 30 because he's in a contract year, plus McDavid.
RNH will hit 30 as going through a broken hand at the end of the year will just make him come back stronger, plus McDavid.
Kapanen will hit 30 since he'll have a full training camp with the Oilers this year, and McDavid.
Hyman will hit 30 because after missing time for some major injuries he's well rested, plus McDavid.
Mangiapane once hit 35 so he's a lock for 30 in Edmonton being surrounded by such significant firepower, plus McDavid.
You can definitely expect 30 from Walman this year as everyone keys on Bouchard, who will be the best defenceman in the league this year because of his massive contract, plus McDavid.
In fact if anyone on the roster doesn't score 30 I'll be utterly shocked.
