Craig Smith
What do you guys see from him over the next couple years?
With Trotz gone, do you see the offense loosening up a bit more?
Is 65-70 pts a possibility?

Re: Craig Smith
Nah, I don't buy this sudden offensive explosion in Nashville. Maaaaaaaybe guys like Smith and Wilson can hit 60 now, but the fact is they just aren't premier offensive players regardless of who is coaching.

Re: Craig Smith
I would temper expectations here. It's hard to know what direction the Preds will go in, but you have to think that given the success they have had with the Trotz system a complete 180 is not very likely. The offense may come into focus a bit more and guys like Smith, Hornqvist, Wilson and Forsberg should benefit from that but I very much doubt we see a drastic change in numbers. 5 - 15 points is possible but I think it's safe to say a PPG Pred is not very likely any time soon. I see the guys I named in the 60 pt range. Decent, but 70 pts for Smith, or indeed any of the others, is a bit of a stretch I think.
