So you expect Bedard to get 20 goals and 50 points? I've had too many stupid arguments with you Victor, take off your tinfoil hat!!! Sid had a 100 point rookie campaign with Colby Armstrong and senior citizen Mark Recchi as his linemates... Yes I think Bedard with Max Domi and Josh Bailey on his line he could get near a 100 point season.
Since the 04 - 05 lockout here are the top 10 rookies by most points, the year, and goals scored
Ovi: 106 (2005) 52
Crosby: 102 (2005) 39
Malkin: 85 (2006) 33
Barzal: 85 (2017) 22
Stastny: 78 (2006) 28
Panerin: 77 (2016) 30
Kane: 72 (2007) 21
Matthews: 69 (2016) 40
Backstrom: 69 (2007) 14
Petterson: 66 (2018) 28
Keller: 65 (2017) 23
So you say he should have a Crosby year which hasn't been done since...Crosby and Ovi.
Even McDavid was only on pace for 29 goals and 88 points his rookie year.
Now you're putting Bedard on a terrible Blackhawks team and expecting 40 goals and 100 points?
Come on.
