Kirby Dach can (very) easily reach the 60-point threshold in 24-25, according to Tony Marinaro.

Kirby Dach was absent for the whole previous season. He was able to play for three and a half periods, in fact, before rupturing his medial collateral ligament and anterior cruciate ligament. It’s unfortunate since, come to think of it, the large center appeared to be at ease on the ice during training camp and the team’s opening contest. For the upcoming training camp, Dach is anticipated to be fully recovered, and naturally, all eyes will be on him. It is difficult to have expectations at this point because everyone will want to monitor him to see if his injury has an impact on how he plays on the ice. Since we are ultimately unsure of his body’s response.

However, Tony Marinaro and Eric Engels collaborated to estimate #77’s point total for the upcoming season, assuming he remains healthy, just for fun. Nevertheless, Marinaro claims that if everything goes according to plan, Dach can “very” likely reach the 60-point barrier in 24–25 minutes in the most recent episode of his podcast, which was recorded last week and released this morning: I believe it is extremely possible for Dach to score 60 points, even after recovering from such a serious injury. — Tony Marinaro It will definitely frighten a few folks. However, Tony Marinaro brings out an important statistic that should not be overlooked: Dach produced 38 points in 58 games during his rookie campaign with the Habs in 22–23.

In an 82-game season, 53 points is what we’re talking about. His playing time and his linemates will also have an impact on all of this. With Juraj Slafkovsky, it appeared to go pretty well throughout training the previous year and in the opening game of the campaign. Furthermore, Slaf has improved since this time last year. When training camp begins, will Martin St-Louis be tempted to start the two huge forwards on the same line? And if so, would it mean that Dach, who had just sustained a very catastrophic injury, may blow up? That’s a lot of questions, and given the current state of uncertainty, that’s what might frighten some people about Dach.
