funny to read this as those are the 2 top forwards I have no "faith" in and not a fan of. Let's see. Hope they both make me eat crow this year!

Was anyone else impressed with Conboy last night? I'll pick him as my surprise player.

I'm really good at those breakout years type of predictions I have more faith in Kostitstyn then Pouliot but I really belive all these two need is a bit of confidence boost.

OK..let's wait and see if you are right.

Not sure if I answered this question, but my answer is Lars Eller.

Lars Eller!

I'm looking forward to seeing Eller play alongside Gionta and Gomez. From what I've heard i feel as though he will compliment that line nicely. Seeing as it see as though our top two lines are 2 skilled speedy guys with one big power forward.

For some i just cant see Poulliot and/or A.Kost stepping up and playing the role we were/are hoping for. But this kid seems pumped up to play and im hoping he comes out on fire. (Not to mention it would be nice to shut the haters up about the Halak trade ).

If he makes a big splash this year and atleast of the two other do too we could really have a solid top 6!

Hopefully i can have some positive things to say about him tomorrow after the game tonight!

From what I've been seeing so far in the preseason I think Ryan White will surprise alot of people this season.

I was just coming in here to give him props. Ryan has definitely turned a few heads this preseason with his hard work.

[amp73]

Not a one.

Have to agree

Unless some player (s) has a break out, career mind blowing year ........but I'm not expecting anything out of the ordinary

Can I change my answer to White?

final answer.

Max Pacioretty is going to have a breakout season, the way he works it's only a matter of time before he fulfills his promise.Power forwards always take a year or two to catch up to the speed and size of the NHL.

Don't know if it is much of a surprise but PK Subban will win ROY.

As of Monday it was reported that he has an upper body injury.

[FirstStar]

Isn't that 2 injuries he's had in pre-season play?

Wasn't he injured last year in the pre-season as well?

Or am I thinking of the year before?
