Matthew Coronato will lead the team in goals
Nazem Kadri held down the fort with a career-best 35 goals last year. Kadri will motivate himself to try to replicate the feat. But what about Coronato, who just signed a big-money extension this offseason? Coronato proved last season that he’s a full-time NHLer while scoring 24 goals. The winger’s shot is arguably the best on the team. There’s a world where he paces the team in goals if he continues his upward trajectory. — Julian McKenzie
