Eric Staal
Rick Nash
Wade Reden
Alex Kovalev
Brian Gionta

Rick Nash, after his conquest at the World Championships I think he is now ready to take his game to the next level. He did have more points last season, but with more games played...

I don't necessarily agree with everything I say.

I agree that Nash will. I think he's due for a year that will match his potential. It's just too bad he doesn't have much support.

I can see Naslund picking it up too. He's a UFA next year so he might be looking for a job!

If you are under the age of 15, please do some research before you make a post about anything pre-1997.

I think Eric Staal will have a bounce back year. He should pair up well with Eric Cole who should also have a big year.

Kovalev- I don't think he can stand another year of Habs fans hating him. He will pick up.

Gionta- Will pick up because of the Gomez loss.

Naslund- He said so himself he will improve. I for one believe him.

Staal. He's too good to be a 70 point guy.
I think Nash will have a great year too.

Eric Staal is doing great so far, and I hope he has a great comeback season. However the player I think will do much better this year is Mats Sundin, he has a few good wingers to support him this year, Antropov and Ponikarovsky have improved greatly and Jason Blake isn't a bad addition either. Mats will be playing more minutes than ever, he'll be playing on the PP alot and probably the PK. There's no reason why Mats can't have a comeback year in 07/08, with 7 pts in his first 4 games I can see it.

I think Naslund will have a great year, and Breandan Morrison too because they do there very best to make sure they stay with the Canucks, and i think Nash will also live up to his huge potential, but he need more help.

I've got Gaborik, Nash, and Kovalchuk in my pool. I hope at least one of them plays to potential. I figure I stole these three as "sleeper picks".

The Oil WILL make the playoffs.
