Sean McCaig at The Hockey News gives his list of players primed for a comeback this year...Markus Naslund, Rangers
It wasn't a lot of fun in Vancouver for the former Canucks captain the past few seasons – his offense slipped and so did the Canucks down the standings. Now Naslund has a fresh start on the Atlantic Ocean side of things and he's more of a support player than the go-to guy, which should take the pressure off. Plus, he'll be skating with Scott Gomez or perhaps Chris Drury most of the time, so the scoring opportunities should be a-plenty. A return to 35 goals and 70-plus points is within Naslund's grasp.
...wow Sean you really went out on a limb naming Naslund a come back player the day after he scores in his first game as a Ranger.
