Arizona Coyotes: 2 Players Who Will Bounce Back Next Season

With the off-season starting to slow down a bit, we now have a better idea of every team's roster going into next season. Of course there will be other moves, but the craziness from the Expansion Draft and first day of free agency is officially done. 

In this segment, we will be taking a look at two players from each NHL team who are set to bounce back next season. Sometimes players will have down seasons, but end up completely turning it around in the following one. This will inevitably happen for this upcoming year, too. With this specific piece, we will be focusing on the Arizona Coyotes.

The Coyotes have made a plethora of changes to their roster, as they are fully embracing their rebuild. However, even with this being so, they should hope that these two players can have stronger seasons than last year. They certainly are capable of it, so it would be wise to keep a close eye on them. 

Lawson Crouse LW: When Lawson Crouse is on his game, he can be a very dependable third-line forward in the NHL. This season was a hard one for the 24-year-old, as he only had four goals and 13 points in 51 games. He also was a -10 in the process. In his two previous seasons, he recorded back-to-back 25 point years. The 2019-20 was particularly impressive, as he scored 15 goals in 66 games, too. With him still being young, there is plenty of hope that he can reach those totals yet again. 

Ryan Dzingel LW: From a statistical standpoint, it was a very down year for Ryan Dzingel. In 40 games split between the Carolina Hurricanes and Ottawa Senators, he only had eight goals and 13 points. Keep in mind, he had a 56-point season just two seasons ago. Even if he never reaches that amount of production again, he once was capable of producing at least 40 points each season. With a fresh start in Arizona, perhaps he can be again.
