[WhatTheDuck]

Max Comtois led the Ducks in scoring in his first "full" (twas pandemic shortened) season as an NHLer, with 33 points in 55 games in his age 21 season. After two dismal seasons to follow, he spent last year in the AHL, and now at age 25 he is in the KHL where he currently sits tied for 86th in points.

mikael renberg

Not quite - he had a better GPG and PPG in his sophomore season (57 points in 47 games) but it was shortened by the lock-out.

 

[The Hockey Tonk Man]

Stanislav Chistov for the Ducks

He scored 12 goals and 30 points for the Ducks in 79 games an six more points on their way to the cup finals

He split the next season between the NHL and AHL and played only more season in the NHL after trying a comeback

I was so stoked when the Bruins signed him.
Stoke faded quick haha
