For each of them, last year was by far the best offensive season they've ever had. Regression isn't a guarantee, but among all the players in the NHL who seem likely to regress, these two are among the most likely. Stone shot over 21% last year! We wouldn't blink if he shot 11% this year and effectively halved his goal rate. Which would then have a cascading effect on Pacioretty's assists to some degree. Last year was the first time that Pacioretty ever had more than .5 assists per game. Usually he's been closer to one assist every three games.
