Aren't all scoring projections basically pulled out of your ass? I'm not sure saying ten to twenty is any more of a guesstimate then saying fifteen.

If we didn't have predictions and discussions and even arguments then we might as well pay attention to our spouses then.

Burrows I think 12 give or take 2 goals

Daniel 16 , give or take 2 goals.

That in my estimate means they will have goal production one line less than what they are currently slotted at.

What I did a poor job of explaining was if Burrows scores 12 that is 3 Rd line numbers not a second liner

If Daniel scores 16 the are respectable numbers for a second liner not a first liner

Yeah and a broken foot and a broken jaw.

Edit: all 5 goals came in March last year

Did somebody break it for him? I hope so

That being said, I have much less animosity for your team now that you no longer employ LaPierre

I didn't say they would get that, I said if they did it would be a successful year. I see them close to 55 which is still an Improvement over last year.

Fair enough, my high for them point wise is 75, and I see Henrik between 65-70 points , Daniel being a bit harder to predict. From what I've seen in the preseason I think he will end up around 60-65, same as Vrbata

If Daniel does get 60 he improved by 15 points no one complains.

I think once they start playing the likes of Brown Bolland Kesler Marchand we will get a better idea of how they will do.

Preseason doesn't offer that intensity.

The biggest issue for the Sedin line is that there isn't really another line that can take some of the pressure off of them. They're going to see the other teams best shutdown guys every shift.

Even still, I've really liked what I've seen from them thus far. A couple of years ago, I would be screaming at the TV when they passed instead if shot. Now I see them do it and I think, Thank God the Sedins are back. I think that this will be the season of them doing whatever the hell they want. I've pencilled the line in for 60-100 points each, give or take a couple of points.

I just spent one hour and 15 minutes to return bottles to the depot and collect 10.85 cents. Being in a relationship is so much fun

Dude, you don't need Gallagher to prove your point. You prove it much better then he does.

Wasn't using him, it is a slow day so for the next three days we talk about anything Canucks related until regular season starts.

I'll agree with that statement, although their opinion and writing techniques are quite similar, and Vantel does quote Gallagher a lot...could they be one of the same...
