Bonino Projections?
Curious what everyone thinks can be expected from Nick Bonino. Of course, this largely depends on how long the HBK line will stick together, but throw out some numbers.

Re: Bonino Projections?
I think he will have between 40 and 45 points.
Re: Bonino Projections?
HBK hit lightning in a bottle in the playoffs. But I can't see Pittsburgh keeping Kessel and/or Hagelin there, so of coruse that will hurt Bonino. Plus, even if the HBK line stayed intact Bonino would barely get scraps of meaningful PP time. Of course, he will do well if (more like when) Malkin gets hurt, so all isn't completely lost.
This is how I see things shaking out for Bonino in 2016-17:
55+ points - 10% chance
50-55 points - 15% chance
45-50 points - 25% chance
40-45 points - 35% chance
under 40 points - 15% chance

Re: Bonino Projections?
45-55 but probably closer to 45 than 55 IMO

Re: Bonino Projections?
35-40 pts for me

Re: Bonino Projections?
Bonino´s success was not limited to just the playoffs, he had 18 points in his last 21 regular season games. Not that it changes my projection, but i just wanted to point out that we are not dealing with just an outstanding post season performance.
Re: Bonino Projections?
I think part of his production is going to be tied to whether or not Kessel stays on the third line with him. It will drop off if Kessel ends up with Malkin/Crosby.

Re: Bonino Projections?
I don't see a scenario where Kessel comes off his line TBH... Last season it just didn't work

Re: Bonino Projections?
At the beginning of the season nothing worked for the Penguins, so Kessel will definitely get another shot to klick with Crosby or Malkin sooner or later.
Re: Bonino Projections?
It worked when he went to the HBK line though

Re: Bonino Projections?
32 pts with 8 or so games to go...
wow you keep getting lots of these pre season projections correct. i will have to consult with you before the next season on my hockey pools
