Something to remember, Gaborik has a history of missing the beginning of the season due to injury, and then absolutely lighting up the scoreboard when he gets back. In 2006-07 he was injured in mid-October until early January and came back to score 30 in just 48 games. In 2008-09 he missed all but the last 17 games of the year, but scored 13 in those games. Let's just say Gabby misses the first 20. I think he comes back to score 30 in those 60+ games... hell maybe even more considering teams are going to have to focus on Richards/Nash and his legs are going to be very fresh. An effective power play would be nice, too.
