The sad thing is that 25-30 goals is pretty much the ceiling for players on this team it seems. I know we rarely has 40 goal scorers but it'd be nice if we could get back to 35 goal scorers carrying the team.

Go back in time and tell Zetterberg not to tweak his back. Hah.

If Mantha turns out to be what we want him to maybe he can be 30+ scorer. Not sure. Obviously too early to tell. What we have is a bunch of centers for the future but I don't see any potential goal scorers. Pulkkinen was "supposed" to be one but that's turning out pretty badly..

If Nyquist put up the exact same numbers but was 6'5" he'd be labelled a star by the league

He's on pace for scoring 43 points this season. No. He would not be labelled a star if he scored only 43 points. Even if he was as tall as The Undertaker.

Yes this year he is down but he scored 28 and 27 goal seasons previous

He was definitely considered as an up and coming possible star when he scored 28 goals in the half season he played. Nyquist was pretty popular by the NHL press when he broke out... Wasn't he voted in as having goal of the year a couple of years ago by TSN? I know it's fan vote but it still put him out there. I don't think size has anything to do with it. Even Johnson for Tampa was getting a lot of recognition last year in the playoffs.
