Jake Guentzel is on track for a career year

While Sidney Crosby continues to stack up points— and prove, alongside fellow even-strength point leader Erik Karlsson, that NHL players don’t automatically turn to dust at age 30— he is helping set up what could be a career season for Jake Guentzel.

Last year, Jake Guentzel tied his career-best goal total (40) and set a new career-best in assists (44) for a personal-best points total of 84.

Will he be setting all new highs by the end of 2023?

Tonight marks Jake Guentzel's 400th career NHL game.

Guentzel's 174 goals are the 10th-most through any active player's first 400 career games.
