Artem Anisimov

  • Last Season: 11 G, 7 A for 18 Points
  • 2013-2014 Season Prediction: 23 G, 33 A for 56 Points
  • This may be high for Anisimov compared to previous years, but I think he has it in him. He is a major part of this Blue Jackets offense and he needs to start producing like it. 20+ goals shouldn’t be out of the question since he netted 11 last year in half a season. I may be slightly optimistic on the assists though.

Last Season: 9 G, 9 A for 18 Points

2013-2014 Season Prediction: 16 G, 27 A for 43 Points

I think Atkinson will be a solid 20+ goal scorer, just not yet in his career though. 43 points is respectable though for a player of his age, and I think 16 G and 27 A is more than enough to ask of him.

Jared Boll

  • Last Season: 2 G, 4 A for 6 Points
  • 2013-2014 Season Prediction: 3 G, 5 A for 8 Points
  • Boll has never scored more than 7 goals in a single season, unfortunately this year I think he will be a few shy of that. 8 points in a season for a player in his role, in my opinion, is a lot of production.
