Peyton Krebs logs 50 points and a 16.5% shooting percentage
While I can see Krebs dropping to the lower lines as Quinn gains more time on the top lines, it doesn’t mean he will produce any less. Look for Krebs to drop to the third if not the fourth line, but he will likely float between the two lines as well.
Either way, I’m looking for a strong, 50-point outing as he has potential to evolve into one of the league’s better forwards on the lower lines. Plus, injuries are an inevitable part of the game, and if anyone on the top two lines misses time, Krebs may be the first call-up, giving him plenty of chances to hit the 50-point mark.
He also enjoyed a 15.2% shooting percentage last season, and I’m looking for that number to increase. Since this is a bold prediction article, I projected a 1.3% increase. But realistically, I’m looking for at least a 16% shooting percentage and more overall output, which will help Krebs reach the 50-point threshold.
