JJ Peterka and Tage Thompson reach 30 goals

Tage Thompson has had a down year. After scoring 47 goals last season, Tage only has 27 goals this year. Part of me thinks he's dealing with some kind of injury. Thompson has missed time this year because of a couple of injuries as he played in 65 games this season. With that being said, he has looked better as of late.

Last week, Thompson scored four goals in a 5-2 Sabres victory against the New Jersey Devils. While he won't reach 40, I think Tage reaches the 30-goal plateau. As for his new linemate JJ Peterka, he has had a very impressive second season.

The German forward has 28 goals and is starting to heat up ever since being placed on a line with Thompson and Alex Tuch. I have both JJ and Tage reaching at least 30 goals before the season comes to an end.
