Who's gonna have their Breakout Season this Year?

[Prarievarg]

 

[Hostile Offer]

Homer vote and I could be alone with this but Charles Hudon.

Also hate to say it but Galchenyuk.

 

[Jarey Curry]

People are sleeping on him, but Jesse Puljujarvi will have a good season

 

[Super Hans]

He already broke out in season 3 of Little People, Big World.

 

[Swedish Gretzky]

Clayton Keller
Mitch Marner
Pierre Luc Dubois

 

[HyPnOtiK]

Morgan Rielly will take another step this year and have the best season he's ever had.

Maybe defensively. Offensively everything went right for him, a ton of secondary assist and decent puck luck. Maybe he can add with the addition of Tavares but I'd be willing to bet he scores roughly the same or less this year

 

[Islesfan22]

Josh Ho Sang

 

[HyPnOtiK]

Luckily Nylander has Matthews as his center or he would be useless too apparently.

I guess that means either Tavares >>Matthews or Lee >> Nylander. Nylander scored half of Lees 40. Love the logic

 

[HyPnOtiK]

Not a real break-out, but if E.K. ends up on a contending team like Tampa, he will break 120 points.

Dude. No player in the NHL is breaking 120 let alone a defenseman

 

[Perfect_Drug]

McDavid will show he has another level.

 

[ZzZz]

Ondrej Kase
Pierre-Luc Dubois
Pavel Buchnevich

 

[Tavares to Marner]

Luckily Nylander has Matthews as his center or he would be useless too apparently.

you've never watched the leafs confirmed

when he played center he outright dominated

 

[NJ DevLolz]

If Hischier gets PP1 time he hits 70 points

 

[PensandCaps]

I like Malgin of Florida..20+ goals. very skilled player.

Has a great nickname too.

 

[Peanut]

Buch puts up

18 45 63

 

[Sidney the Kidney]

Jake Guentzel. I think this year is when he finally breaks out in the regular season and looks more like the player from the playoffs.

Assuming 82 games played, I think he can reach 60 or so points.

-If he actually played on the powerplay unit with Crosby and Malkin, he would hit that number in his sleep. But because he doesnt get the quality powerplay time, his stats arent anywhere near as impressive as they should be.

 

[Apollo Leaf]

Alex Galchenyuk and Nolan Patrick. I can see both hitting 60+ pts this season.

Leaf pick: Mitch Marner.

 

[Sidney the Kidney]

If he played on the top PP unit, I'd predict 70+ points for him. But since he doesn't, I think 60 points is reasonable (about 50 or so at ES, with about another 10 on the PP).

 

[GodEmperor]

Kaspari Kapanen finna pop dat Kap

 

[FinnishCoyote]

Arizona has so many wild cards ATM, their next season is so hard to predict

Legit change to breakout:

Strome
Perlini
Fischer
Hinostroza
Chychrun
Dvorak
Galchenyuk (top-6 center)
Keller (80 points)


If everything goes right, Yotes could be big threat next season. If everything goes wrong, well, see the start of last season

 

[nowhereman]

Jake Virtanen will finally prove his doubters wrong.

 

[thesaadfather]

Schmaltz from the Hawks.

Prior to the trade, I said that Hinostroza would really breakout this year, and I’m sticking to it.

 

[Joey Moss]

On the Oilers I see Puljujarvi taking a big step even if it's a 20G 40P kind of year. Around the league I feel like Roslovic will be able to replace Stastny and Jost establishes himself as Colorado's 2nd line center.

 

[Joey Moss]

Schmaltz from the Hawks.

Prior to the trade, I said that Hinostroza would really breakout this year, and I’m sticking to it.

Going from 28 points to 52 isn't a breakout year? I feel he's kind of already done that. Unless you see him as a 65+ player.
