Mr Seguin- What do we expect?

[Fighting_Emu]

So between his slumping p[rior to the playoffs, his poor post season, and the delicate nature of his injuries- what are we expecting from a healthy Seguin? Does he have it in him to get back to a ppg threat whos shoots 300? Or is he more of a 50-60 point player whose damaged goods like Mr. benn maybe? Tater thoughts?

Damaged goods. I believe he’s like a Benn.

I noticed in dropped performance once they get their big contracts. I always look for guys who will get a big pay day. There are exceptions like Mcdavids of the world.

I personally won’t be picking him up. Especially in a cap league

I'm hoping for 60 point pace, a bunch on the PP and while getting a lot of shots.

I wouldn't consider last season as played with a major injury. He is still able to put 65-70 pace IMO

The guy was playing hurt for so much of last season its hard to remember how good he can be when he was healthy as recently as say 2 seasons ago

i believe theyll probably stick him on the wing for at least the first portion of when he returns. 50 pt pace with 3 sogs per game is probably the floor. i could easily see him getting an extra spring in his step from finally being healthy to putting up near ppg and 4 sogs in 15 games. he cost me my last round pick so basically no risk.

Thanks guys! Its not a cap league but I did give up Trochek for him- so just curious what I might have got myself into- lol! Im fine with a floor lower than Troche because there has to be upside thats higher if he can bounceback. Klingberg did with the same injury- benn not so much :P

Benn is a big player that plays a much more physical game. These kind of players (like Lucic as well) tends to decline very quickly.

I mean, I hope I am right because I just acquire Seguin base on the fact that before his "bad" season when he was injured, he was a constant ppg player.

I think Seguin has a few more PPG seasons left in him. Especially if he's healthy for the first time in awhile. He's not even 30 yet so he's still in his prime production years.

I think the time off to rest his body will be good for him in the long run. He just turned 29 years old and before last season Seguin averaged a point per game the previous six years. Even though Pav and Rad are longer in the tooth I still think they are 65 plus point fowards. The young guys like Hintz, Gurianov, Heiskanen have shown well. Add Klingberg and good goaltending depth Dallas has a solid balance of young and old. I see Seguin in the 70 plus point range the next few seasons.

I think that he will be a 70+ point pace guy from the day he returns.
