    Pretty meager defenses if you ask me. 70 for each seems more a certainty than a question mark.
    The number of divisional games isn't as stark as in the past, but each one is going to help. Add in 3 games vs. Arizona...I'm hopeful Patches will be healthy for the bulk of these.

    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.

    I can’t speak for others but for me, I don’t question their skill, I question their durability. If either plays 70 games they have a shot but 65 GP is what I expect.

    Stone has shot above 15% 7 times in his career. Yeah, he's due for a bit of regression from 21% but he's clearly a selective shooter who makes them count. I think they are not getting enough credit.

    Your Stone and Pacioretty forecast is off to a rocky start

    I like the Fox and Weegar ones the most.
    I can't promise I'll try but I'll try to try.

    I went with these 3

    1) Neither Mark Stone nor Max Pacioretty will score 70 points
    3) Adam Fox will not finish in the top ten in defensemen scoring
    5) The GAA for the New York Islanders, as a team, will be below 2.00 (i.e., the Islanders will allow an average of fewer than two goals per game)

    ...
    At their current scoring pace both Stone and Pacioretty will hit the 70 point mark in game 24...

    Seeing the looking back column, I'd be willing to call Gostisbehere a "hit" or something better than a foul tip. A guy playing 3 games isn't really pacing for anything in a 82 game season.

    Not even close.

    To think only one just barely got over half the 70 point mark ... ouch

    Yes but injuries were the issue. Not their play. Meh.
