If Larsson gets the kind of PP time that Hynes or Shero hinted at, we really could see a pretty big jump in his production. Powerplays are huge for defenseman points. Larsson was actually top-50 in the league in EVS points last year with 21. He had 23 total. And that's considering the early parts of the season where he wasn't getting a lot of minutes and mostly getting buried in the D zone. AND that was in only 64 games. The list of offensive defensemen with less ESP than Larsson last season is pretty impressive.
