NHL.com point projection: 60
Byfield had career highs in points (55) and goals (20) in his first 80-game season with the Kings. He was elevated to the first power play last season and ranked fifth on Los Angeles in power-play points (14) and power-play goals (six) last season. He’s a full-fledged breakout candidate in fantasy who’s attainable outside the top 100 overall and should be prioritized among the top 50 overall in dynasty leagues.
