Maybe Kane takes that step everyones been waiting for? I know he won't be kept in my league and was relatively cheap for a while.

Maybe Stepan gets into PPG territory in a full season?
Tarasenko. A known quantity, but moves to explosion mode.
Full season of Hertl.
Huberdeau or Barkov, though I don't think anyone in FLA is breaking 50-55 pts.
I would say Tatar, but I think you can expect much of the same of what you're seeing. 45-55 pts. Really liking his game.

Barkov & Nichushkin... IMO, have the ability to pull a Nyquist and just completely bust out for 55-60pts.

I once traded Henrik Lundqvist and Ilya Kovalchuk in return for Peter Budaj and Henrik Zetterberg… have lived in shame ever since.

Nichuskin- Linemates are really good and he should begin to compliment they perfectly
Barkov
Kuznetsov
Toffoli
Granlund
Jaskin maybe needs another 1-2 because it is stl

Are you serious? If so I just traded him had him forever. I would be mad if he even scored 60 next year

I am hoping for Soderberg. He has been great with limited ice time. And if Iggy leaves, he will get even more time
Points only, 26 team keeper league. keep 8 + 4 prospects. 2 LW,2 RW, 2C, 4 D and G. 1 point goal,1 point assist
Goalies. 2 points win, 1 for O/T or Shoot out loss, 3 for SO, 2 for assist, 10 for goal. Minus 1 for a loss
Draft 8 more through draft. Need to have 11 on main team, 9 on reserve. Once roster set, can add 1 injured reserve spot.
Roster:
LW JVR, Steen, Hagelin
C Malkin, E. Staal, Nelson
RW Okposo, Wheeler, Donskoi
D Demers, Pulock, Savard, Vlasic
G Holtby
prospects: Frost, Sprong, Andersson, Bear, Niku, Katchouk
Soderberg will be 29 years old next season.. But I do agree, he will get more points next year.. And for the record, Iggy won't be going anywhere..
I love the E.Kane, Ennis, Granlund, Huberdeau, and Yakupov predictions.. A full season for Silfverberg might put him in the conversation aswell!!
Counting only players who played at least one game both this year and last year:
Huberdeau could bust the Florida bias and his sophomore slump.
As has been said, Tarasenko could explode.
For a sleeper rookie/sophomore (even on here), how about Nicklas Jensen? Just searched his name, and he has appeared in 10 threads since June. When no one on these forums talks about you, you are a sleeper. With the Canucks in disarray, he could easily spend lots of the season with Henrik where he has flourished so far.
