    I would say no.
    His 13.8% shooting is well above his 10% career amount.
    I don't see him repeating his even-strength numbers, which hit 20+min this year.
    Vanek was a nice complimentary winger to that top line as well... and he is gone.

    It was a magical 60-game run for Vanek-Tavares-Okposo.

    I think of Okposo as a 58-62pt player... who can touch high 60s again, perhaps 70s once or twice more.
    But he is not a "70pt player".

    I say DEFINITELY, I've said it many times that this guy is a stud. He doesn't need to be surrounded by good players to produce, he can carry the play on his own. Everybody was saying to drop him when Tavares went down and Vanek left Long Island, but he just kept producing nonetheless. Consider this his breakout season and not a fluke. But for some reason, I have a feeling I can still get him for cheap next season!

    Put Okposo in the category of guys that can do it but won't most years.

    If he plays with Tavares he is easily a 70 point player. No question. More likely 80 points.
    If Capuano remains the coach, then Okposo will stay on his RW.
    If the Isles get a new coach, then things could change and Kyle's points take a hit.

    Well it look like he is more a steady 65-70 pts player (with Tavares) with a couples of 70 pts year...

    He has dissappointed more than he has impressed. I agree with P7's analysis.

    I was about to take Okposo over Marleau and Oshie. But after your post... I think I'll go: Marleau > Okposo > Oshie for 2 years

    That would be a mistake.
