Unveiling the NHL’s Most Shocking Breakout Stars of 2025-26 – Prepare to Be Amazed!
Geekie is riding a red-hot 22.8 percent shooting clip that will likely regress (we’re already seeing signs of that with his slow start to 2026) and he doesn’t generate shots at a particularly high volume. I’d be surprised if he becomes a perennial 40-goal scorer, but becoming an established 30+ goal producer seems like a very reasonable outlook, considering his elite shot, so long as he continues getting plenty of reps with Pastrnak as his setup man.
Josh Doan, LW/RW, Buffalo Sabres
Doan, acquired as the secondary piece alongside Michael Kesselring in the JJ Peterka trade, has been a wonderful revelation for the Sabres. The 23-year-old winger has exploded for 35 points in 49 games, a 58-point pace, but the offensive production only scratches the surface of his all-around on-ice impact.
