## Resource

Vasily Podkolzin exploded onto the scene last season, smashing career highs with 19 goals and 37 points in 82 games—right after signing a lucrative 3-year, $8.85M deal. A key contributor on the second line alongside Draisaitl, he’s a fan favorite for his relentless physicality, durability, and consistency. With the team thin up top and the schedule expanding to 84 games, his reliability is invaluable. Versatile and clutch, he thrives in any role—whether driving offense on the top line or providing secondary scoring down low. Expect him to keep climbing, with the potential to become a steady 20-goal scorer and a cornerstone of the team’s future.
