    Jason Chen and Michael Amato discuss why Ryan Nugent-Hopkins will regress in points, and Evan Bouchard's massive upside on a dominant Oilers power play.

    As part of the Pacific Division preview, the Sleepers and Keepers fantasy hockey podcast hosts Jason Chen and Michael Amato discuss some burning questions regarding the Oilers. 

    Why will Ryan Nugent-Hopkins will regress from 104 points (0:17)? How many points does Connor Brown score, and where should he be drafted, after being re-united with former OHL running mate, Connor McDavid (2:18)? 

    And what about Evan Bouchard moving into the upper echelon of elite power-play quarterbacks with an over/under of 70 points (4:48)? How does he compare to Adam Fox in a keeper league (7:01)? And, finally, does Jack Campbell have any fantasy value this season and does he ever take back the starting job (9:10)? 

    In the cap era, there have been only 13 instances where a player has scored 50 or more power-play points in a single season. Ryan Nugent-Hopkins holds the record for the fewest primary assists (13) and the most secondary assists (25). Usually, secondary assist totals are considered to be more luck-based and less replicable than primary assist totals. Image
