Hartnell - 25 goals
vanRiemsdyk - 25 goals
Leino - 20 goals
That's 225 goals from our top 8. I don't think my expectations are low at all.

JVR with 25 goals in his sophmore season with no PP time?
Has there EVER been a sophmore that put those kinds of goal totals with no PP time in the history of the NHL? Bobby Ryan is the only one I can think of that did it and he had 1st line PP time all season if I am not mistaken.
I will take 15-20 G, 35-40 points and slightly better defense from JVR and say that he is right on pace in his development.
