EDIT: Let's base this on pace if season is shortened.
There seems to be an array of opinion for young Mr. Kapanen. A lot stemming from the hefty price we paid. Where does the majority feel he will contribute next season? He has been a low 40's point getter for the leafs the last two seasons.
I myself feel he's a good candidate to be a 50-60 point contributor next to Sid. I am excited for his attributes and while normally not optimistic...
I think he will end up somewhere between 45-55 points. I think the 50-60 points will be tough when he won't get PP time on the top unit. Although the second unit does get a fairly decent amount of time and Kapanen will have good point men such as Matheson and Marino. He should also have McCann and one of Rust or Zucker so that second PP unit should get points. So you could be right. I will be happy with the 45 points and anything over that will be a bonus. As long as he provides 40 even strength points and some PK points that will be great. Any points added on the PP is just a bonus.
I voted 50-60 points but only because it didn't have 45-55 points. That's what I see Kapanen doing this season. Since I was right in the middle I went up because I see Kapanen getting at least 45 points with Crosby.
