    IMO they're all pretty close - 60-65 pts.

    Granlund - will continue to get better. I dont think he peaked and the team is getting better as well. 70-75 points next year.
    Voracek - I think he is better than last year. I expect 65-70 points.
    Drouin - He is starting to put it together and will get ample opportunity in MTL. I expect him in the 60-65 range.
    Hoffman - really great player, but I dont expect much more than what we have seen the last two years. 60-65 range, but I like Drouin's chances better.

    Your milage may vary.

    This is me, but beware of the injuries with Granlund.. 45 pts in 45 games is still 45 pts... He has a history. I think 70+ is hard to reach. Guys like Getzlaf, S?guin.. are names who hit totals like that consistently. Not ready to anoint Granlund into that group just yet. I worry about Drouin's offensive upside in MTL. Historically not many forwards have reached their potential there, outside a few exceptions. Only one topped 80 pts since 1996 and it was Alex Kovalev. A few 70 pt seasons sprinkled in there with Koivu and Plekanec and that's basically it... in over 20 years.. so temper your expectations for Drouin, I say.

    I think Hoffman, Granlund, and Voracek will all likely be in 60-65 territory. I'd say the chances of them posting 70+ are: Granlund (25%), Voracek (20%), Hoffman (10%), so I'd probably put them in that order.

    To me, Drouin will be lower - 55 at best. I don't see the hype and I think the surrounding talent in Montreal won't do him any favors.

    Thanks for your points of view guys. I agree with Granlund being the favorite of the bunch. I really see Hoffman as a sniper that can get 35 or 40 goals, for 65 pts total. Does Drouin can handle the pressure in Montreal? I think so. They are going to want to give him all the tools to sucess and make the trade look great from the start. I hope he plays with Pacio or Galchenyuk. I see him at 30-35 for 65 points.
    For Voracek, can he repeat an 80 point season or everybody sees him at 60-65 pts ?
