Borgstrom, a former 1st round draft pick from the University of Denver, showed glimpses of talent last season for the Florida Panthers. With stats of 18 points (8 goals, 10 assists) across 50 games, the numbers may not jump out at you, but the talent is well and truly there.
Borgstrom is a certified playmaker but really struggled to contribute consistently last season. There’s a lot of reasons for this, but the main reason I’d eye was the lack of foundation that Borgstrom had throughout the season.
By this, I mean Borgstrom’s role was never truly set during his time under Bob Boughner.
