I know I'm being a bit of a homer, but no love for Jake? 33 points in 40 games last year. I have to think that 55 to 60 points over a full season is entirely possible.
I would also throw in Josh Anderson. |

I didn't really consider him for a breakout because he produced at a 68-point pace last season. I think *that* was the breakout haha. |

Fair enough, but producing at a rate and finishing at the point-total are two different things IMO. |

Konecny looks to be put into a first line role with Giroux and Voracek. Could be a big season coming up for the former 1st overall OHL pick. |

The name mentioned in the blog I think will make the biggest leap is Ho-Sang. I don't like to admit when I'm jealous of a player a rival has, but I'm jealous of the Isles having Ho-Sang. He'd look great in a Pens jersey. |

Guentzel had a completely unsustainable SH% last year. Could he put up good numbers this year? Sure. But with limited PP time and a regressed SH% to even 10%, I'd expect around 45-50 pts over a full 82 game slate. |

I can't disagree because I really don't know what will happen, but when you consider how he continued producing into the playoffs, the 60ish point-range isn't that far-fetched. That being said, you could be totally correct. |

He put up 39 points as a defenseman last year. I love Skjei but I don't think he's a breakout candidate. He already has broken out. |

The examples provided for consideration in the blog included many names that could have utilized. That list consisted of Burakovsky, Bjorkstrand, Darling, Hanifin, Zacha, Ho-Sang, Beauvillier, Buchnevich, and Konecny, among many others. Each team is represented amongst that list. - Jan Levine

You missed the sarcasm and the general stupidity of that person's post Todd. |
