Very likely. Not a guarantee, but he’s got a great chance

If he stays healthy yes

Linemates are what will hold him back.

He is a gun. I think he could be 3rd in points. Might be hard to get ahead of McDavid and Draisaitl. Definitely not beating McDavid.

I’d say top 10 for sure, top 5 if healthy.

Possibly a top 5 goal scorer, but a top 5 point scorer isn’t really realistic imo
Hattrick_Swayze2
Well, he cracked 100 a couple seasons ago, but last year was only on pace for ~92. Considering there were 11 players with 100+ points last year, I’d say his chances aren’t great.

He’s an insane talent that can takeover a shift easily, anyone who watches the guy on and off the puck can see he is special out there. I’m not sure where Minnesota ended up in total offense last year and how many games he can stay healthy for but it takes more than just Kirill being insane to be putting up that many points, all the people around him need to be finishing and creating at high rates as well. Is the potential there yea for sure, but if I had to make a pick I would say no.

He definitely carried them in the playoffs last year!
caseym44
No, he’s very good on his own but doesn’t have an elite C to help him like many other top players do
Hey_look_new
mcdrai will be 1-2
kucherov, mackinnon, probably top 5
pasta I am not sure will replicate his season
Tkachuk, Robertson, petterson, rantanen also all probably better
so no, he won’t be a top 5 guy
Mitcheeeey
Nah, but top 10? I think so
Survive1014
Top 5? Ehhh. Top 10? Yes.
youres0lastsummer
Not sure but what I am sure about is that he is soo fun to watch
illumiflo
Yes it possible but the Wild are still not getting past the first round of the playoffs this year
Sadiq_Sabonis
Unlikely. So many elite scorers in the league on better teams. He has a weak supporting cast

He has a good chance.
That kid is one hell of a 5th round pick
