Pens win the Cup, beating the Flyers, Caps, Bolts, and Sharks.

It’ll be déjà vu all over again.

But this time, Phil wins the Conn Smythe.

I love that the Bolts are yet again the sexy pick out of the East. What is this now, six years in a row?

Jake gets 55-60 points, ~25 goals, ~30 assists
Sid hits 100 for the first time in what seems like forever
JMFJ shows he isn't a complete tire fire
Murray bounces back
Phil scores 40
dodint finds out he really loves Simon and Letang
About half way through the season bump:
Jake on pace to score more than predicted
Sid right on pace for 100
Since being paired with Pettersson, JMFJ hasn't been terrible
Murray has been good as of late, hope he keeps it going
Phil is below the 40 goal mark but on pace for ~97 points
dodint was never going to admit his love

I think Kessel struggles this year.
I think Sid has one of his best years in a long time.
3rd in division
1) He has turned it on as of late, but he definitely did not look great to start the season.

2) Oh hell yeah dot jpeg...best since the 2013-14 campaign.

3) Seems reasonable.

Not quite the season for Phill

Define 'struggles'. Kessel was a point-per-game player this season with the league lead in game winning goals.

His Corsi For also dropped four points this year. Fenwick dropped 100 points. So yeah, he struggled if you look at the ADVANCED METRICS.

Yeah, I think using point production as the end-all be-all is absurd. He did struggle a lot this year and was a liability for a good chunk of the season.

See above. Because Kessel had a point per game this season, he did not struggle, per NTP and LBL.

He didn't specify what the struggle would be so he can't be right or wrong. It is subjective.
