Tyler Toffoli

Tyler Toffoli is a soon to be unrestricted free agent who would bring a secondary scoring touch to New Jersey. The Los Angeles Kings forward found early career success with a 30-goal campaign and was an integral part in L.A.’s second Stanley Cup championship over the New York Rangers.

In what has been a down year for the Kings, and Toffoli himself. He could still crack the 20-goal plateau. The knock on Toffoli is that he is a streaky goal scorer; however he is a talent oozing with skill. He probably will not score 30 goals again, that was a situation where everything fell right into place. However, playing in a fast, uptempo system which caters to his skill set, he could be a consistent 20-25 goal scorer. The risk may be worth the price tag of over five million for the soon to be 28-year-old sniper.
