Stankoven, Gauthier, and Smith would be my picks at cracking 50 points.
The only one I'm somewhat confident in is Stankoven, and even then I'm not sure he hits 50pts.

Stanky for 50, maybe. Possibly Gauthier too. Otherwise, not.
Long term, I like:
Smith
Stanky
Gauthier
Then the rest, I'd have to get more educated about.

i think Zary will have a shot, Stankoven as well.
Nylander maybe wildcard specially if Pens sell further, someone has get some points...
i dont think he will get to 50 just yet, but Roy should be able to carve out a good role in MTL.
but if i was betting on it, i would bet against the field.

Stankoven and Zary would be the only two with a chance.
Alex Nylander is now in Columbus.
There's a few different groups for these guys:
The future producers, but not quite ready yet:
Will Smith
Cutter Gauthier
Easton Cowan
The guys who likely aren't sniffing more than a handful of games before Christmas of 2025:
Ville Koivunen
Jordan Dumais
The guys who are in the NHL and just need an top-6 slot:
Ivan Miroschnichenko
Jonatan Berggren
Pavel Dorofeyev
Alex Nylander
Logan Stankoven
Connor Zary
Joshua Roy
It's that third group where you have above a 5% chance of a 50-pt breakout, though most of these guys are still below the 10 or 15% benchmarks of it happening next year.
Nylander has been pacing that well with Columbus, but he hasn't managed to stick yet, I need to see more before I believe it.
Zary and Stankoven are probably the most likely, though neither is guaranteed a top-6 spot, which would make or break the possibility. 40% chance with, 15% chance without.
A trade for Berggren could put him in a better spot and up the possibility too, but still, 20% chance next year at the most, even with a change of scenery.

"Cleavage is like the sun. You can look, but dont stare.. Unless you're wearing sunglasses."
Agree w/others.
Stankoven is the only one I like for 50pts in next two years.
Will Smith & Cutter Gauthier both have the draft-spot and pedigree to do it... eventually.
But both, AFAIK, are slated to be centers.
And playing center in the NHL is brutal.
You are looking at C3/C4 time in your first one or two seasons.
And that usually keeps players from putting up points.
If you tell me that 100% one of them will be slated by their team on "wing".
Then I might be buying 50pts.
Cutter Gauthier is the more logical... since ANA has Leo Carlsson as future C1 and McTavish seems absolutely fine for C2.
But Gauthier has to fight through Zegras, Terry, Vatrano, R.Strome, and Killorn.
Not sure he can do that. Seems he's more likely to play sheltered C3 minutes, especially now with Henrique gone.
SJ needs Will Smith to be their future C1 very, very badly (unless they win the Celebrini sweepstakes).
With Hertl out and Couture seemingly damaged... I think he'll have more of a Dylan Larkin-ish trajectory.
Which most likely means 3rd season for 50+pts on a bad team.
