How big of an increase will he have from his projected #s of 30 goals and 25 assists (as per Dobber\'s projection)? Opinions please.

It all depends on how long this line stays together... But I would imagine he has the talent to score close to 50 and put up 30-40 assists. Look for a 80 point season if it sticks together.

is jordan staal really on crosby\'s line?

That\'s how they will start the season, but they shift lines around a lot.

I Cant wait to see J.Staal and Sid together....
People forget... Staals ice time for the first 30-40 games was under 12 min

at about the half way point he started to play with Malkin and thats when
he really started to preform

Anyones guess how well he would do
my opinion is hes a 90pt player if he sticks with crosby....
im hoping so i have him on my keeper team!

Hes golden on crosby\'s line. He got 29 goals playing with a bag of pucks and a roll of tape last year. Playing a full year on crosby\'s wing... 50 possible? Add on 30-40 assists simply cause of that linemates.

It\'s not all about Crosby either... The man on the other side of him is a very talented forward and should score 30-40 goals himself. If this tandem stays together all year it just might be the best line in the league right now!

i\'m a (hopeful) owner of j.staal, but would also temper my excitement in the likes that the lines of the penguins are not in stone, and pending losses or getting more balanced attack setups, and other coaching whims, he won\'t be that 90 point monster that we could paint him as.

he\'s still young, he could just as easily move down with malkin, or provide a sure\'er line with the 3rd line... never know, but the 10+ point boost of being with sid is in the bag i\'d say.
